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: ▲4%; Now £12m
Cash at bank: ▼27%; Now £47.9k
Headcount: ▼10%; Now 110
Deferred income: ▲28%; Now £69.9k
Fixed assets: ▼0%; Now £7.9m

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