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: ▲8%; Now £15.7m
Cash at bank: ▼7%; Now £1.8m
Headcount: ▼8%; Now 135
Deferred income: ▲20%; Now £302k
Fixed assets: ▼1%; Now £12.8m

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