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.

Cash at bank: ▼35%; Now £6.7m
Headcount: ▼8%; Now 23
Deferred income: —; Now £3.1m
Fixed assets: —; Now —

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