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: ▼0%; Now £8.4m
Cash at bank: ▼25%; Now £708k
Headcount: ▲7%; Now 122
Deferred income: ▲221%; Now £212k
Fixed assets: ▲5%; Now £11.9m

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