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: ▲463%; Now £14.6k
Cash at bank: ▲22%; Now £49.1k
Headcount: ▲50%; Now 3
Deferred income: ▼33%; Now £22.7k
Fixed assets: ▼21%; Now £1.8k

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