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: ▲7%; Now £3.8m
Cash at bank: ▲64%; Now £1.6m
Headcount: ▼22%; Now 57
Deferred income: ▼10%; Now £786k
Fixed assets: ▲22%; Now £58k

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