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: ▲9922%; Now £6m
Cash at bank: ▼10%; Now £2.5m
Headcount: —; Now 0
Deferred income: ▼33%; Now £64k
Fixed assets: ▲8%; Now £12.4m

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