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: ▲17%; Now £10m
Cash at bank: ▼2%; Now £1.6m
Headcount: ▲1%; Now 85
Deferred income: ▼73%; Now £1.5m
Fixed assets: ▼27%; Now £887k

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