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 £3.1m
Cash at bank: ▲47%; Now £20.8k
Headcount: ▼17%; Now 67
Deferred income: ▼19%; Now £289k
Fixed assets: ▲241%; Now £187k

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