sorry?

i thought the 18.4mil is the ANNUAL profit!!!

That's impossible. The way you end a fiscal year is how you start the following. We ended 2012 with an almost 50m loss, you don't start the following year on a clean slate. You go from there.

To reach +1.4 profit, first we overcame -49.4.

We ended 2013 with 50m loss. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2531810/Chelsea-announce-annual-loss-49-4million.html

We had a small profit in 2012 because we won CL.

everything is about the year. the fiscal year.

all the data that is given is said to be for the fiscal year. the calculations done are based on the revenues for the year, the matchday revenue, the tv revenue. so how does it include the last year?

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/champions-league/10676021/FFP-How-Manchester-City-and-Premier-League-clubs-compare.html

this article should make it clearer. it treats the 1.4mil profit (2011-12) and the 49.4 mil loss (2012-13) per year and as separate entities.

dont know why u guys are getting it all jumbled or maybe i am way way way off my mark.

Yeah, I mixed the order... point remains that if the previous year you had -49.4 you start the following fiscal year at -49.4. To call it even, you need to have your revenue to overcome your expenses in -49.4.

i m sorry... but its all in the heading itself... http://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2014/11/chelsea-fc-announces-annual-profit.html

"ANNUAL" profit.

if not that then This is the second profit in three years and the largest since Roman Abramovich became owner of the club in 2003.

should clear it up

or maybe this

The £18.4 million profit follows the £1.4 million generated two years ago. Strong revenue increases as well as a significant surplus on player sales during the 12-month period contributed.

Guys, it's simple... the fiscal year ended on 30/06/2013 with a loss of 1.4. On 01/07/2013 starts a new fiscal year, instead of starting at 0.0 it will start at -1.4. The fact that it says ANNUALLY profit or loss just means that that's the balance after one year, saying it's annual has nothing to do with how the year book started on 01/07/2013. Where do you think the cumulative losses go to? Forgiven by banks and society? That companies say 'I have a debt, but the year ended, and that's now in the past, I'll start over with a clean slate'. It makes no sense whatsoever. Just take a look at the incomes we had. Do a rough calculation and see that we've been making much more than spending for a while, but the fact we couldn't break even or have some sort of profit is mainly because of losses from previous years that weren't just forgiven and forgotten. The Deloitte report is much more detailed.

:blink:

I don't know anything about FFP, but surely the fact that we have broken even, plus possible future deals (such as Luiz, if i read right) and sponships deals that may occur on dependance of our current form (Premier League title, etc.) means we are set for a significant rise in profit in the coming-seasons based on the fact we have a smaller stadium in comparison of clubs in the same 'level' as us who haven't been able to reach that level and are struggling to gain a significant enough rise with the players they have on their wage bill.

Let's see this example from FM

I always thought what Chelsea reported it annually is that the profit/loss part "Last Season" column.

Of course there is a balance part that is overall incomes and expenditures since the beginning. But, don't think that's what they published it in every year. It's a secret, lol.

every club gives their year end, only fiscal year's record. thats how u judge how good or bad your year has been. chelsea has not made a 18.4 mil profit since 1905. thats crazy talk. we incurred 100s of millions of losses in the roman era. this just shows how the club has progressed or regressed in the last season.

i dont know why you are confusing 2 different things. also, i have given you articles explaining this.

The cumulative losses or earnings go to the owners equity. I never saw the Balance Sheet of Chelsea, and I don't know how our consecutive losses are financed (I would say with increases of capital)... but if we were a normal club we would be broke for sure.

The values we are talking for profits or losses are just related with this year (or in our case last season).

If in the profit of last season is not included the money of Luiz we are in a good situation to reach a balanced financial position. if that's not the case we still have a lot of work to do and without the sells of Mata, De Bruyne and Luiz we would have maybe 50 or 60M£ of losses.

The Luiz money was not included. I made a post on page 14 explaining why I think so and at the time was like 90% sure but since reading Jake Cohen's article analyzing the figures I am now 100% certain of it. Because the transfer did not become official until the 1st of July 2014, no payments were made by PSG before that date so it would be ridiculous to include any money from the sale in the financial reports for the 13/14 year. Including it would be almost comparable if the club had a year ago counted the £££ from the improved PL broadcasting deal for the 12/13 financial year to make it look better than it really was just because they knew the money was coming in sometime later.

For the 14/15 financial year the club already have a £62.3m 'profit' from the sales of David Luiz, Romelu Lukaku, Demba Ba, Patrick van Aanholt and George Saville. We may also see some players being sold in the January window so that figure may still rise. Even now the amount is roughly £25m more than the sales profits from the whole 13/14 season so assuming the club's expenses stay pretty much the same with newcomers such as Costa and Fabregas merely replacing former expensive players like Lampard, Cole, Eto'o, Luiz then I see no problem for the club in making an even bigger total profit next year.

It's true that we can't rely on making such significant sales every year while also remaining competitive but for the next year or so we're pretty much set with the sales we've already made now and then there's the army of loanees like Ryan Bertrand, Victor Moses, Oriol Romeu, Lucas Piazon and Marco van Ginkel, most of whom will almost certainly not have a future at the club but will still produce a significant amount of book profit when sold. And let's not forget the big elephant in the room named Fernando Torres, whose annual £18.5m cost will soon be off the books completely. There will also be new and improved sponsorship deals kicking in every year, for example the rumoured Turkish Airlines shirt sponsorship alone will fetch the club around £10m more annually. I wouldn't be concerned at all about the current situation, quite the opposite really.

Jake Cohen himself then said on Twitter that he was mistaken and if Ian Herbert is saying that the Luiz deal is included, then it is included:

Okay, well that sucks. Despite that at the moment I’m still feeling slightly sceptical about reports saying it was included because by my math it shouldn't have been, guess we’ll have to wait till December 31st when the club has to release a full report on the financial year 13/14 to know for certain. If the Luiz money indeed was there, then it'll be interesting to see what the result for next year will be like because the income from player sales would again be much, much lower with only Lukaku as a noticeable outgoing transfer.
