NuCana plc Balance Sheet 2025-2011 | NCNA

Brief overview of NuCana plc's balance sheet structure

This overview follows the five latest available annual observations between 2020 and 2025.

Assets finished at £29.8 million versus £107.8 million initially, losing -72.3%. The balance sheet contracted.

Asset growth of -72.3% came with a -35.7% rise in liabilities. Financial leverage became more prominent.

The equity ratio reached 81.5% from 92.1%. A high capital share reduces dependence on liabilities.

Cash exceeds interest-bearing debt, producing net debt of -£23.6 million. The balance sheet therefore carries a net cash position.

The cash reserve occupies 81.3% of the balance sheet, previously 81%. It is one marker of short-term resilience.

The balance sheet carries negative retained earnings of -£252.3 million. The figure may result from accumulated losses or an active capital return policy.

What the balance sheet shows

NuCana plc's financial structure is not clear-cut. Asset scale alone does not resolve questions about how those assets are funded.

Balance Sheet is a fundamental financial report of NuCana plc, providing a complete picture of the company’s financial position at a specific point in time. Unlike the income statement, which records the results of operations over a certain period, the balance sheet shows what assets the company owns, what liabilities it has to creditors, and what equity is available to the owners.

For an investor, the balance sheet is important because it allows assessing the company’s financial stability, understanding how much debt it carries, and how dependent it is on borrowed financing. It helps calculate key liquidity and leverage ratios. When analyzing, attention should be paid to the debt-to-equity ratio (Debt/Equity), the amount of cash on the balance sheet, and the ratio of current liabilities to liquid assets.

Features of balance sheet analysis
  • Vertical and horizontal analysis
    Vertical analysis shows the structure of the balance sheet as a percentage of total assets or liabilities, while horizontal analysis shows the dynamics of changes over multiple periods.
  • Asset quality
    It is important to evaluate not only the amount of assets but also their liquidity and realizability.
  • Accounting for off-balance sheet liabilities
    Some liabilities may not be directly reflected in the balance sheet, which requires additional attention.
