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: ▲18%; Now £7.4m
Cash at bank: ▲7%; Now £694k
Headcount: ▼3%; Now 223
Deferred income: ▲67%; Now £1.1m
Fixed assets: ▲24%; Now £277k

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