Indirect — not revenue

Balance-sheet signals

Year-on-year changes in filed balance-sheet items. They can hint at momentum (or investment) but are not revenue or profit and must not be read as such.

Net assets: ▲30%; Now £311k
Cash at bank: ▲2678%; Now £183k
Headcount: 0%; Now 1
Deferred income: ▲2105%; Now £24.3k
Fixed assets: ▼83%; Now £4.3k

Deferred income is reported together with accruals in this filing (“accruals and deferred income”), so it is an approximate signal only.
