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: ▼32%; Now £7.1m
Cash at bank: ▼79%; Now £2m
Headcount: ▲25%; Now 5
Deferred income: ▼46%; Now £1m
Fixed assets: ▲148%; Now £166k

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