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: ▲21%; Now £1.7m
Cash at bank: ▲269%; Now £254k
Headcount: ▼5%; Now 84
Deferred income: ▼68%; Now £26.9k
Fixed assets: ▲4%; Now £1.2m

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