Turnover is reported at £76.1k, a marked increase from the £2k booked previously, though the absence of a prior period length makes a direct comparison impossible. The top-line growth did not return the business to profit, with an operating loss of £10k largely unchanged. Administrative expenses of £80k fully offset the £70k gross profit, deepening the balance sheet deficit to £66.5k in negative net assets.

A subdued set of accounts for this zero-headcount entity. Turnover registered at a modest £1.1k, up from a nil reading in the prior year. The balance sheet remains relatively well capitalised for its size, holding £42.6k in net assets and £5.8k in cash, alongside the low level of trading activity.
Proof that you don't need staff to hold cash, just a quiet year.
