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: ▲28%; Now £11m
Cash at bank: ▲62%; Now £6.5m
Headcount: ▼11%; Now 57
Deferred income: ▲35%; Now £4.4m
Fixed assets: ▲61%; Now £260k

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