Barcelona have announced profits of €9.4 million (£7.1 million) at the midpoint of the season so far.
That comes despite spending €143.6 million (£108.48 million), including the signing of top players such as Thierry Henry.
A massive €153 million (£115.5 million) was generated in revenue, with television rights leading the way (€56.7 million (£42.8 million)).
Merchandising generated €43.5 million (£32.8 million), while club members provided the club with €8.5 million (£6.4 million).
Despite the string figures, officials at Barcelona are confident that the second half of the season will be even more fruitful.
The club expects profits to increase in the coming months as it said that this is traditionally the time of year when the most money is made.
Two of the most lucrative contracts will also be included in that final figure, with Nike's merchandise contract and MediaPro's TV deal coming into the equation.
