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 £2.3m
Cash at bank: ▼48%; Now £1.9m
Headcount: ▼11%; Now 74
Deferred income: ▼42%; Now £763k
Fixed assets: ▼17%; Now £363k

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