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: ▼74%; Now £417k
Cash at bank: ▲206%; Now £952k
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 61
Deferred income: ▼14%; Now £1.7m
Fixed assets: ▲23%; Now £26.2k

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