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: ▲7%; Now £2.5m
Cash at bank: ▲55001%; Now £427k
Headcount: ▼7%; Now 38
Deferred income: ▼17%; Now £77.3k
Fixed assets: ▼3%; Now £1.3m

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