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 £17.5m
Cash at bank: ▼10%; Now £6.4m
Headcount: ▼20%; Now 12
Deferred income: ▼27%; Now £1.6m
Fixed assets: ▼84%; Now £242k

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