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: ▼4%; Now £6.9m
Cash at bank: ▲21%; Now £1.2m
Headcount: ▼37%; Now 93
Deferred income: ▼49%; Now £463k

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