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: ▲13%; Now £490k
Cash at bank: ▲18%; Now £1.3m
Headcount: ▼2%; Now 46
Deferred income: ▲6%; Now £1.1m
Fixed assets: ▲3%; Now £266k

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