Financial Statements: What They Mean & How to Read Them

What Are Financial Statements?

They’re reports that show the financial health of your business. The three main statements are:

  1. Profit & Loss (P&L) Statement
    Shows your income and expenses over a specific period, and whether you made a profit.
    Example: If you earned AED 50,000 and spent AED 30,000 → Net Profit = AED 20,000
  2. Cash Flow Report
    Focuses on cash inflows and outflows to help determine if you have enough liquidity to meet obligations.
  3. Balance Sheet
    Gives a full view of your assets (what you own), liabilities (what you owe), and net worth (your equity).
