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: ▲5%; Now £40.8m
Cash at bank: ▼22%; Now £1.3m
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 128
Deferred income: ▼29%; Now £146k
Fixed assets: ▲3%; Now £41.2m

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