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: ▲5%; Now £4.2m
Cash at bank: ▲26%; Now £7.9m
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 766
Deferred income: ▲25%; Now £7.1m
Fixed assets: ▲8%; Now £1.6m

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