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: ▲17%; Now £4.3m
Cash at bank: ▲3%; Now £1.5m
Headcount: ▲7%; Now 125
Deferred income: ▲8%; Now £2.1m
Fixed assets: ▲31%; Now £1.3m

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