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: ▲77%; Now £4.4m
Cash at bank: ▼54%; Now £1.8m
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 71
Deferred income: ▲24%; Now £1.1m
Fixed assets: ▲2%; Now £16.7m

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