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: ▲31%; Now £597k
Cash at bank: ▲26%; Now £683k
Headcount: ▼25%; Now 3
Deferred income: ▲38%; Now £35.6k

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