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: ▲11%; Now £12.6m
Cash at bank: ▲21%; Now £173k
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 58
Deferred income: ▲9%; Now £230k
Fixed assets: ▲39%; Now £376k

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