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: ▲3%; Now £8.3m
Cash at bank: ▼40%; Now £907k
Headcount: ▼6%; Now 49
Deferred income: ▼34%; Now £1.2m
Fixed assets: ▲4%; Now £4.6m

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