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: ▼46%; Now £924k
Cash at bank: ▼93%; Now £74k
Headcount: ▼8%; Now 33
Deferred income: ▲146%; Now £474k
Fixed assets: ▼21%; Now £110k

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