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: ▲7%; Now £4.4m
Cash at bank: ▲27%; Now £708k
Headcount: ▲4%; Now 27
Deferred income: ▲43%; Now £168k
Fixed assets: ▲31%; Now £1.7m

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