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: ▲49%; Now £3.5m
Cash at bank: ▲298%; Now £2.3m
Headcount: 0%; Now 19
Deferred income: ▲164%; Now £403k
Fixed assets: ▲43%; Now £754k

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