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: ▲10%; Now £3m
Cash at bank: ▲52%; Now £2.1m
Headcount: ▲19%; Now 51
Deferred income: ▲16%; Now £1.5m
Fixed assets: ▼46%; Now £11.8k

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