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: ▲4%; Now £1.2m
Cash at bank: ▲23%; Now £511k
Headcount: 0%; Now 18
Deferred income: ▲17%; Now £12.3k
Fixed assets: ▼5%; Now £200k

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