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 £5.2m
Cash at bank: ▼20%; Now £1.1m
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 54
Deferred income: ▼54%; Now £446k
Fixed assets: ▼9%; Now £1.4m

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