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: ▲32%; Now £4.9m
Cash at bank: ▲200%; Now £2.6m
Headcount: ▲22%; Now 259
Deferred income: ▲117%; Now £265k
Fixed assets: ▼5%; Now £546k

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