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: ▲34%; Now £12.8m
Cash at bank: ▼30%; Now £1m
Headcount: ▲17%; Now 14
Deferred income: —; Now £1.2m
Fixed assets: ▼41%; Now £28.5k

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