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 £2m
Cash at bank: ▲49%; Now £800k
Headcount: ▲13%; Now 18
Deferred income: ▼35%; Now £1.1m
Fixed assets: ▲64%; Now £37.7k

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