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: ▲23%; Now £5.9m
Cash at bank: ▲192%; Now £3.3m
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 53
Deferred income: ▲5%; Now £12.6k
Fixed assets: ▼9%; Now £3.9m

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