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: ▲4%; Now £3.8m
Cash at bank: ▲18%; Now £1.4m
Headcount: ▲4%; Now 51
Deferred income: ▼7%; Now £64.3k
Fixed assets: ▼10%; Now £758k

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