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: ▲31%; Now £5.6m
Cash at bank: ▲21%; Now £4.9m
Headcount: ▼0%; Now 676
Deferred income: ▼22%; Now £1.1m
Fixed assets: ▼3%; Now £1.1m

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