have proved again why they are one of the Premier League's most financially stable clubs in their latest annual results.
The results for 2014/15, which have been published today, show the club made pre-tax profit of £7.62 million while turnover increased year-on-year by £9.5 million to £96.2 million.
Although the club's pre-tax profit almost halved from the 2013/14 season tally of £14.6 million, much of this drop can be attributed to diminished returns from the transfer market.

The breakdown of the club's annual revenue streams shows increases in:
- Gate receipts: £8 million (2014: £6.9 million)

The club's accounts cover the 12-month period to June 30, 2015, and are for the parent company West Bromwich Albion Holdings Ltd.
