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: ▲57%; Now £15.6m
Cash at bank: ▲10%; Now £12.8m
Headcount: ▲9%; Now 105
Deferred income: ▼4%; Now £14.3m
Fixed assets: —; Now £4.1m

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