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.

Cash at bank: ▲7%; Now £5m
Headcount: ▲11%; Now 10
Deferred income: ▼26%; Now £7.2m
Fixed assets: ▲37%; Now £5.8k

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