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 £5.3m
Cash at bank: ▲19%; Now £1.8m
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 62
Deferred income: ▲110%; Now £85.6k
Fixed assets: ▲8%; Now £3.1m

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