Sorry, jargon - sort of.

I don't know what the equivalent in the States is, but Companies House
here is the Government body which regulates the formation and conduct of
limited (equivalent I think to incorporated businesses in the States)
companies and their directors in the UK.

Among the obligations of a limited company (the limited refers to
liability to creditors being limited to share capital rather than the
directors personal assets) have in UK law is that they must make a
return to Companies House each year showing assets, liabilities,
directors earnings, and a summary of trading results.

So for payment of a small fee, you could if you wanted obtain details of
The Who Group Ltd return for each fiscal year which would show the
sales value for the year, and directors' earnings.

This is not a snooping exercise, companies are required by law to make
this information public each year.

Cheers,
