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 £2.9m
Cash at bank: ▼100%; Now £284
Headcount: ▼4%; Now 72
Deferred income: ▲46%; Now £670k
Fixed assets: ▲5%; Now £666k

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