Overall, the group loss before tax was £2.2m compared to a profit of £17.8m in 2012.
Chairman Sir Chips Keswick told the club's official website: "When I was appointed chairman last summer, there was good reason to believe that the hard work which has been put in, by many people across the club, over recent years had created the momentum for a successful season in every aspect of our activities.
"Thus far that optimism has been well-founded. We believe we are in a strong position to take the club forward both in the short-term and beyond and to deliver future on-field success."
