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: ▲7%; Now £3.3m
Cash at bank: ▼19%; Now £821k
Headcount: ▲8%; Now 71
Deferred income: ▼13%; Now £4m
Fixed assets: ▲4%; Now £3.7m

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