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: ▲15%; Now £180k
Cash at bank: ▲12%; Now £250k
Headcount: 0%; Now 26
Deferred income: ▲0%; Now £75.9k
Fixed assets: ▼25%; Now £7.6k

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