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: ▲15%; Now £6.9m
Cash at bank: ▲32%; Now £4.1m
Headcount: ▼2%; Now 147
Deferred income: ▲4%; Now £342k
Fixed assets: ▼4%; Now £1.4m

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