"The club is focused on complying with the requirements of UEFA's financial fair play regulations while maintaining its ability to challenge for major trophies," Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck told the club's website yesterday.
"We would expect this to be reflected in our results for the current financial year."
Chelsea chief executive Ron Gourlay added: "Achieving a record level of turnover is satisfying, given the economic background against which we are operating."
The Blues are fourth in the Premier League, 13 points behind leaders Manchester City, and find themselves in the unusual position of not being the best-placed top-flight club in London, with Tottenham Hotspur five points in front of them in third position.
However, Chelsea are through to the last 16 of the FA Cup, where they will face second-tier Birmingham.
