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 £3.8m
Cash at bank: ▲18%; Now £1.4m
Headcount: ▼14%; Now 89
Deferred income: ▲1%; Now £101k
Fixed assets: ▼35%; Now £278k

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