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: ▲13%; Now £6.6m
Cash at bank: ▲51%; Now £3.2m
Headcount: ▲7%; Now 72
Deferred income: ▼26%; Now £38.2k
Fixed assets: ▼82%; Now £122k
