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: ▲12%; Now £4.9m
Cash at bank: ▲16%; Now £4m
Headcount: ▲7%; Now 122
Deferred income: ▲23%; Now £138k
Fixed assets: ▼6%; Now £1.6m

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