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: ▲1%; Now £4.5m
Cash at bank: ▲32%; Now £505k
Headcount: ▲15%; Now 54
Deferred income: ▼34%; Now £425k
Fixed assets: ▼11%; Now £1.1m
