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: ▲7%; Now £1.6m
Cash at bank: ▲12%; Now £1.2m
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 65
Deferred income: ▲35%; Now £244k
Fixed assets: ▲17%; Now £620k

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