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: ▼63%; Now £6.2m
Cash at bank: ▼55%; Now £1.5m
Headcount: ▼2%; Now 60
Deferred income: ▲27%; Now £6.3m
Fixed assets: ▼12%; Now £1.8m

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