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: ▼12%; Now £3.6m
Cash at bank: ▲12%; Now £3.1m
Headcount: 0%; Now 2
Deferred income: ▼61%; Now £72.8k
Fixed assets: ▲14%; Now £3.5m

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