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: —; Now −£3.2m
Cash at bank: ▼88%; Now £105k
Headcount: 0%; Now 3
Deferred income: ▲36%; Now £113k
Fixed assets: ▲8041%; Now £220k

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