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: —; Now £2.1m
Cash at bank: —; Now £1.1m
Headcount: —; Now 61
Deferred income: —; Now £445k
Fixed assets: —; Now £3.2m

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