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: ▲12%; Now £2.6m
Cash at bank: ▲171%; Now £1.2m
Headcount: ▼7%; Now 38
Deferred income: ▲106%; Now £331k
Fixed assets: ▼1%; Now £491k

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