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: ▲1%; Now £3.7m
Cash at bank: ▲50%; Now £554k
Headcount: ▼8%; Now 37
Deferred income: —; Now £0
Fixed assets: ▼7%; Now £2m

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