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: ▲7%; Now £9.1m
Cash at bank: ▼14%; Now £2.5m
Headcount: 0%; Now 67
Deferred income: ▼7%; Now £218k
Fixed assets: ▲22%; Now £8.1m

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