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: ▲32%; Now £24.1m
Cash at bank: ▼71%; Now £452k
Headcount: ▲47%; Now 50
Deferred income: ▼22%; Now £20k
Fixed assets: ▲16%; Now £1.1m

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