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: ▼6%; Now £7.5m
Cash at bank: ▼16%; Now £4.7m
Headcount: ▼5%; Now 39
Deferred income: ▼58%; Now £43.9k
Fixed assets: ▲26%; Now £577k

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