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: ▼7%; Now £13.8m
Cash at bank: ▲1197%; Now £524k
Headcount: ▼16%; Now 36
Deferred income: ▲5%; Now £59.9k
Fixed assets: ▼1%; Now £9.4m

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