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: ▲6%; Now £10.1m
Cash at bank: ▼42%; Now £497k
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 99
Deferred income: ▲14%; Now £208k
Fixed assets: ▲0%; Now £9.9m

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