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: ▲121%; Now £1.7m
Cash at bank: ▲9%; Now £1.1m
Headcount: ▼13%; Now 62
Deferred income: ▼8%; Now £831k
Fixed assets: ▼7%; Now £191k

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