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 £3.2m
Cash at bank: ▼32%; Now £224k
Headcount: 0%; Now 28
Deferred income: ▲57%; Now £117k
Fixed assets: ▼2%; Now £3.6m

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