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: ▲53%; Now £40.4m
Cash at bank: ▲7%; Now £2.1m
Headcount: ▲65%; Now 28
Deferred income: ▲7%; Now £2.7m
Fixed assets: ▲135%; Now £936k

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