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: ▲7%; Now £7.5m
Cash at bank: ▼51%; Now £827k
Headcount: ▲23%; Now 135
Deferred income: ▼13%; Now £934k
Fixed assets: ▲936%; Now £3.1m

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