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: ▼20%; Now £10.5m
Cash at bank: ▼71%; Now £125k
Headcount: ▼4%; Now 64
Deferred income: ▼70%; Now £168k
Fixed assets: ▼10%; Now £3.4m

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