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: ▼14%; Now £2.2m
Cash at bank: ▲198%; Now £1.4m
Headcount: ▲6%; Now 282
Deferred income: ▼36%; Now £118k
Fixed assets: ▼5%; Now £10.1m

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