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: ▲13%; Now £7.8m
Cash at bank: ▲57%; Now £3.2m
Headcount: ▼2%; Now 179
Deferred income: ▼7%; Now £1.9m
Fixed assets: ▲31%; Now £67.4k

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