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: ▼29%; Now £677k
Cash at bank: ▲1292%; Now £233k
Headcount: ▲6%; Now 83
Deferred income: ▼11%; Now £467k
Fixed assets: ▼4%; Now £3.2m

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