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: ▲11%; Now £2m
Cash at bank: ▲114%; Now £738k
Headcount: ▼20%; Now 238
Deferred income: ▼2%; Now £545k
Fixed assets: ▼5%; Now £3.3m

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