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: ▲25%; Now £2.5m
Cash at bank: ▲15%; Now £96.2k
Headcount: ▲30%; Now 538
Deferred income: ▼56%; Now £780k
Fixed assets: ▲31%; Now £183k

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