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: ▲9%; Now £7.8m
Cash at bank: ▼0%; Now £1.6m
Headcount: 0%; Now 25
Deferred income: ▲238%; Now £461k
Fixed assets: ▲5%; Now £1m

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