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.

Cash at bank: ▲614%; Now £2m
Headcount: —; Now 76
Deferred income: ▲16%; Now £235k
Fixed assets: ▼2%; Now £3.8m

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