Mouse & Mogul reports third quarter revenue of 52,700 dollars, an increase of 28 percent on the previous quarter. CFO Pennywhistle called the numbers ‘encouraging, if you squint’. Net profit was 6,100 dollars, after adjusting for the cost of one lost brass mouse.

• Active vendors: 62, up from 51
• Average sale: 31.50 dollars
• Customer satisfaction: 88 percent

The Chairman described the result as ‘a victory for capitalism’, then asked what capitalism was, then asked if there was cream in it. The next report will be published in January, subject to the CFO locating her glasses, which are in the Chairman’s bed.

Mouse & Mogul closed the second quarter with revenue of 41,200 dollars, up 12 percent on the same quarter last year. Chief Financial Officer Penelope Pennywhistle called the result ‘solid’, ‘healthy’ and ‘slightly under the sofa’.

• Trophy mice sold: 1,940
• Executive desk toys sold: 612
• Items returned with teeth marks: 88

Ms. Pennywhistle noted that returns were up, but that this was a sign of customer engagement. The Chairman attributed growth to ‘strong fundamentals, a hot sunbeam and my personal brand’. The Chairman has framed the report and hung it at cat height, so that it can be examined and gently clawed.
