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: ▲1%; Now £29.2m
Cash at bank: ▲5%; Now £4m
Headcount: ▼8%; Now 56
Deferred income: ▲169%; Now £382k
Fixed assets: ▼18%; Now £3.5m

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