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: ▲4%; Now £2.6m
Cash at bank: ▲61%; Now £253k
Headcount: ▼8%; Now 85
Deferred income: ▼36%; Now £165k
Fixed assets: ▼17%; Now £4.2m

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