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: ▲10%; Now £2.7m
Cash at bank: ▲426%; Now £350k
Headcount: ▼12%; Now 38
Deferred income: ▲33%; Now £1.2m
Fixed assets: ▲8%; Now £448k

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