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: ▼42%; Now £889k
Cash at bank: ▲9%; Now £490k
Headcount: ▼27%; Now 61
Deferred income: ▲1%; Now £361k
Fixed assets: ▼17%; Now £988k

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