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: ▼1157%; Now −£976k
Cash at bank: ▲249%; Now £192k
Headcount: ▼5%; Now 174
Deferred income: ▼32%; Now £2.4m
Fixed assets: ▲2%; Now £2.9m

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