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: ▲15%; Now £5.5m
Cash at bank: ▼5%; Now £965k
Headcount: ▲7%; Now 80
Deferred income: ▲7%; Now £458k
Fixed assets: ▲34%; Now £10m

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