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: ▲7%; Now £5.6m
Cash at bank: ▼97%; Now £19k
Headcount: ▼4%; Now 67
Deferred income: ▲19%; Now £214k
Fixed assets: ▼5%; Now £1.2m

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