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: ▼4%; Now £1.2m
Cash at bank: ▼44%; Now £104k
Headcount: ▼10%; Now 54
Deferred income: ▲3%; Now £142k
Fixed assets: ▼5%; Now £298k

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