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: ▼31%; Now £2.3m
Cash at bank: ▼38%; Now £1.6m
Headcount: ▼4%; Now 43
Deferred income: ▼18%; Now £3m
Fixed assets: ▼19%; Now £41k

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