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: ▼3%; Now £5.4m
Cash at bank: ▼18%; Now £951k
Headcount: ▲5%; Now 41
Deferred income: ▼29%; Now £203k
Fixed assets: ▲1%; Now £2.5m

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