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 £24.4m
Cash at bank: ▼20%; Now £4.7m
Headcount: 0%; Now 89
Deferred income: ▼55%; Now £375k
Fixed assets: ▼5%; Now £7.5m
