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: ▲43%; Now £6.6m
Cash at bank: ▲39%; Now £6.8m
Headcount: ▲12%; Now 92
Deferred income: ▲36%; Now £1.3m
Fixed assets: ▲156%; Now £15.9k

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