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: ▲1%; Now £6.3m
Cash at bank: ▲166%; Now £940k
Headcount: ▼5%; Now 52
Deferred income: ▲3%; Now £437k
Fixed assets: ▼7%; Now £2.1m

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