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: ▼35%; Now £8m
Cash at bank: ▼38%; Now £387k
Headcount: 0%; Now 19
Deferred income: ▲23%; Now £467k
Fixed assets: ▲5%; Now £2.8m

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