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: ▲38%; Now £5m
Cash at bank: ▼17%; Now £3.7m
Headcount: ▲1%; Now 243
Deferred income: ▲65%; Now £6.1m
Fixed assets: ▲12%; Now £489k

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