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: ▲4%; Now £2.5m
Cash at bank: ▼47%; Now £727k
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 56
Deferred income: ▼15%; Now £145k
Fixed assets: ▲82%; Now £1.5m

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