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: ▲116%; Now £1.6m
Cash at bank: ▼57%; Now £36.1k
Headcount: ▲9%; Now 12
Deferred income: ▲16%; Now £167k
Fixed assets: ▲10%; Now £5.2m

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