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: ▲87%; Now £2.9m
Cash at bank: ▲225%; Now £110k
Headcount: ▲4%; Now 58
Deferred income: ▼18%; Now £2.7m
Fixed assets: ▲402%; Now £389k

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