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: ▼25%; Now £6.5m
Cash at bank: ▲37%; Now £3.2m
Headcount: ▲4%; Now 162
Deferred income: ▼3%; Now £1.6m
Fixed assets: ▼10%; Now £3.6m

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