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: ▼33%; Now £2.9m
Cash at bank: ▼23%; Now £1.5m
Headcount: ▼4%; Now 43
Deferred income: ▼4%; Now £407k
Fixed assets: ▼15%; Now £52.2k

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