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: ▲486%; Now £1.5m
Cash at bank: ▲227%; Now £12.1m
Headcount: ▲100%; Now 28
Deferred income: ▲73%; Now £7m
Fixed assets: ▼46%; Now £20.4k

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