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: ▲184%; Now £12.6m
Cash at bank: ▼12%; Now £861k
Headcount: ▼2%; Now 909
Deferred income: ▲24%; Now £31.6m

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