The income statement for November 2013 can be found here, this is hopefully the last without a balance sheet.
With almost 4 billions in total revenue (before tax), November has been the busiest month ever, and it is only be course of a large investment into raw materials (Buy order placement and Advert modification) that we end up with a small total loss on the income statement.
Due to some unexpected problems, the income statements got delayed a bit, but we have now put up all statements up to October, including a half-year report from January to June.
They can be found here
We expect the statement for November will be up next Saturday.
Unfortunately we are not ready with the balance sheets yet, and there is still some way to go, but we hope to be ready so we can use it early next year.
The income statement for March 2013 has been added.
March was very similar to the first 2 month, a relative high revenue, and a relative high investment in new materials, which ends up giving a small net profit.
The income statement for April 2013 will be added in a few days.
I have added the income statement from February 2013.
The most significant different is in the market cost, we simply had more returning buy orders in February then January which ends up giving us a small positive net profit.
The income statement for March 2013 will be added within the next few days.
During the last 2 years NTO has evolved from being a small operation with one decent producer, making and selling 20-30 different items, to now where we have 383 sell orders at Tellesis Main Terminal, spanning across all technology levels and almost all item categories, the exception being the Modular Colony structures
In fact if we disregard the MCS’ we only lack 26 T4 items and 7 heavy mechs/gliders to complete our sales catalog.
The last 10 month has been very busy, we have made a lot of improvements to our setup both in game and out side the game, and we are still working on more improvements. Improvements that will allow us to continue to expand and help us towards our goals.
One of the latest improvements is now going to be used to share some more information about NTO to all who are interested.
During November we are going to release monthly financial statements, starting today with January 2013, and continuing all the way up to October 2013, the first 9 month will sadly only contain an Income statement, but from October (and onwards) the statements will contain both an income statement and a balance sheet.
The plan is that after the first 10 month of 2013 has been released, we will continue to release a financial statement every month, with a delay of 3 weeks after the end of every month.
It has been a while since our last update.
Since last time we have added the T4 Accumulator recharger, T4 Sensor amplifier, T4 Medium miner module, T4 Industrial tuning, T4 Medium harvester, T4 Velocity NEXUS module and the T4 Fast extractor NEXUS module. Now we have a total of 355 sell orders.
With the new research system we will start to do some research again, hopefully we can get some more items rolling out of the factory soon.
Behind the scenes we are currently working on a new feature for our calculation tool.
This feature uses the information from character and corporation transactions, and the first thing we are building is a way to show an income statement that we will make publicly available.
Below is an image showing how it looks right now in our tool.
We currently have not set a deadline on when this will be ready, but we are getting close to finishing it, all that are left is the presentation of the collected data, but that can still take some time to complete.
The last of the items have been put up on the market.

Everything we have the research for is now available on the market, with the exception of the Heavy Mechs and the Heavy Glider, we originally intended to start producing these after all the NEXUS’ but with the DEVs talking about the prototype bots, we have decided to put that on hold until after the patch.
We will be using the next couple of weeks planing how to best avoid the complications with the possibility of prototype bots and from the last DEV blog the new enabler extensions that we most likely will not have the EPs to get right away.
We already have some thoughts of how to avoid these new obstacles, but more on that later.
These 14 T3 items have been placed on the market today.

Most of the prototypes for the last items are done, we just need to make some CTs and get the production going.

It is not May yet, but we have had the chance to divert more production resources towards this goal then we had expected. This means that we will already have some of the T3 items ready within the next 24 hours, and instead of waiting until May to put them on the market we have decided to start a little early.
This is the list of things we want to put on the market this month

We are only 2 weeks into April and our goals have already been completed.
This is actually just as we have planed, the reason for why we wanted to be done with the goals this soon is that we need a lot of time to prepare for the T3 and T4 production next month.
Lets take an example of what we are facing:
One of the items we want to produce the T3 and T4 version of next month is the EW NEXUS.
We want to make a sell order of 30 T3s and 30 T4s, when we make a sell order we do not only produce the 30 that we put on the market we also produce 30 extra so we are ready to replace the sell order as fast as possible if it gets sold.
So this means that we need to produce 60 T4 EW NEXUS, but since all higher tier item always need a lower tier item in the production, we also need to build 60 T3s, 60 T2s and 60 T1s, the same rule applies to the T3 order, so totally we need to build 60 T4s, 120 T3s, 120 T2s and 120 T1s just to make the 2 sell orders of 30 T3s and 30 T4s.
Every single NEXUS takes about 2.5 hours to make in the factory and with a total of 420 items to build that makes a total of 1050 hours building time or 43.75 days, and that is just for the EW NEXUS orders, and with 7 different items with 43.75 days building time and 9 other items that we only have the T3 research for but also wish to build, next month is going to put a large strain on our factories.
And that is why we wanted to finish this month goals early so we can start to build the needed T1s and T2s already this month, otherwise we simply do not think we would be able to finish next month goals.
