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: ▲60%; Now £854k
Cash at bank: ▲3%; Now £3.1m
Headcount: ▲4%; Now 29
Deferred income: ▲1%; Now £1.8m
Fixed assets: ▼4%; Now £231k

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