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: ▲1%; Now £22.1m
Cash at bank: ▼15%; Now £5.8m
Headcount: ▲1%; Now 267
Deferred income: ▲274988%; Now £847k
Fixed assets: ▲3%; Now £13.5m

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