Though all the day-to-day operations are completely handled by our volunteer staff in an ad-hoc nature, our official business entity SoylentNews PBC technically makes financial decisions through the Board of Directors with their goal being the preservation of the 'public benefit' that this site entails.

SoylentNews operates on a fiscal year rather than a calendar year. We received word on July 4, 2014 that our articles of incorporation had been accepted and signed off. Our first fiscal year (2014) ran from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015.

Below, for each Fiscal Year is a Profit and Loss Statement and a Balance Sheet for SoylentNews Public Benefit Corp:
