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: ▲6%; Now £3.1m
Cash at bank: ▼100%; Now £1.9k
Headcount: ▲9%; Now 75
Deferred income: ▲117%; Now £624k
Fixed assets: ▼7%; Now £2.2m

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