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: ▲27%; Now £2.8m
Cash at bank: ▲94%; Now £83k
Headcount: ▼7%; Now 287
Deferred income: ▲15%; Now £786k
Fixed assets: ▲39%; Now £2.7m

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