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: ▲30%; Now £8.9m
Cash at bank: ▲240%; Now £1.2m
Headcount: ▼7%; Now 76
Deferred income: ▲145%; Now £1.5m
Fixed assets: ▼9%; Now £821k

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