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: ▲667%; Now £2.5m
Cash at bank: ▲9%; Now £1.7m
Headcount: ▲15%; Now 144
Deferred income: ▼11%; Now £3.4m
Fixed assets: ▼60%; Now £1.5m

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