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 £24.6m
Cash at bank: ▲963%; Now £1.9m
Headcount: ▼12%; Now 162
Deferred income: ▼65%; Now £837k
Fixed assets: ▼10%; Now £11m

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