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: ▲40%; Now £2.2m
Cash at bank: ▲44%; Now £1.9m
Headcount: ▼9%; Now 31
Deferred income: ▲213%; Now £442k
Fixed assets: ▲5248%; Now £270k

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