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: ▲14%; Now £3.6m
Cash at bank: ▲16%; Now £600k
Headcount: ▲11%; Now 98
Deferred income: ▼17%; Now £23.1k
Fixed assets: ▼0%; Now £6.4m

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