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: ▼3%; Now £15.3m
Cash at bank: ▼56%; Now £1.4m
Headcount: ▼16%; Now 59
Deferred income: ▲39%; Now £3.7m
Fixed assets: ▲9%; Now £4.9m

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