What is the source of this document?
Companies House (UK)
Agree, worthless - why publish this at all, Bitstamp?
Doesn't add much to their credibility - in fact, subtracts from it.
Bitstamp didn't publish that. IMHO they should have prepared proper accounts (audited) and publish it, but they didn't.
What you see is an extract from the abbreviated accounts, which, by law, they have to file with Companies House every year. Such accounts are publicly available in CH (for a small charge).
Thanks for the clarification.
