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: ▼3%; Now £1.9m
Cash at bank: ▼51%; Now £519k
Headcount: ▲4%; Now 105
Deferred income: ▼64%; Now £59.5k
Fixed assets: ▼5%; Now £3m

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