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: ▲0%; Now £1.8m
Cash at bank: ▲22%; Now £1.6m
Headcount: ▲5%; Now 21
Deferred income: ▼42%; Now £26.8k
Fixed assets: ▼12%; Now £148k

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