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.

Cash at bank: ▲33%; Now £1.5m
Headcount: ▲0%; Now 228
Deferred income: ▲21%; Now £65k
Fixed assets: ▲11%; Now £1.9m

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