Figures for Kate Moss Agency, which she set up in 2016, have soared.
As well as looking after her own career, the talent agency represents Ella Richards — granddaughter of Rolling Stones' Keith — and model Thomas Eblen, aka Blondey McCoy.
Its profits to the year ending July 31, 2023, include £831,000 earned last year.
The accounts were signed off by Kate last week and filed at Companies House.
They show the firm held £5.9million in assets, including £2.6million in cash, and owed £1.5million in bills.

Clever Kate, who is a director of the company, owed just £13 in bank loans and overdrafts.
Its net assets have jumped from £3.5million in July 2022 to £4.31million.
A source said: “Kate started the business at the time Lila was starting to model.
“It was also at the time Kate herself was changing her lifestyle and stopping her renowned partying.

“So it has been a roaring success and she has other high-profile stars, like Rita, on the books.
"Kate has so much experience in the industry and has been able to apply it to what she knows best — modelling.”
Kate Moss, 50, wows with lookalike daughter Lila Grace, 21, as they pose for designer bag ad campaign
Croydon-born Kate, who started modelling aged 14 in 1988, runs six private firms, including her agency and her wellness brand Cosmoss.
On her daughter’s career, she previously said: “She understands she can say no, for one thing, which I never did, and she has the right people around her — I’ve made sure of that.
“And let’s face it, she’s a lot more sensible than I was back then.
"I mean . . . thank God.”
These figures are worth raising a glass to, but reformed party animal Kate no longer drinks after overhauling her lifestyle.
Perhaps a cuppa and a salad will have to make do when toasting her success.
LOVE THE NEW LOOK, MAISIE
MAISIE WILLIAMS looks a world away from her Game Of Thrones days in this structured tweed dress in New York.
Sporting eyebrows that would make Cara Delevingne’s look thin, the English actress – who found fame as GoT’s Arya Stark – was at a Q&A for her Apple+ series The New Look.

Out now, it centres on the life of designer Christian Dior and is set in the 1940s.
Maisie plays his sister Catherine and revealed she ditched her mates to concentrate on the role.
She said: “I let go of a lot of my responsibilities in my own life in preparation.
"I came away from all of my friends and my family and from my phone.
"I don’t think I looked at my phone for a month.”
A high-paying job where you don’t even have to check your emails sounds like a dream.
SAB'S SINGLE
SABRINA CARPENTER is giving Taylor Swift a run for her money in the charts with her single Espresso.
It has gone from No5 to No1 in the midweek update and looks likely to knock Taylor and Post Malone’s collaboration Fortnight off the top spot after a week.
But there are fewer than 1,000 copies separating the two, so it is all to play for.
Taylor doesn’t have much to worry about, as her songs from album The Tortured Poets Department are still hugely popular.
According to the sales figures, Fortnight is at No2, I Can Do It With A Broken Heart is at No7 and Down Bad is at No8.
WHO COULD THIS BIE?
HE has sold more 150million records in a career spanning 15 years – but I can’t blame you if you don’t recognise Justin Bieber here.
The Canadian singer has grown a long, scraggly beard and showed off photos of his new facial hair on Instagram, as he continues a musical hiatus.

He quit his tour in 2022 citing health issues and has been having time out ever since, although he did pop up at Coachella earlier this month to perform with singer TEMS.
Fingers crossed, new music is on the way.
But shaving the beard might be a good idea before that.
ZARA: GIVE ME MORE HATERS
MOST singers surely want more fans – but not Zara Larsson.
She claims you are only truly loved when you have got a load of people slating you as well.

The So Good singer said: “I want more haters.
“Just a few, because that truly means you also have a lot of lovers and the haters are really dedicated people.
"If someone is indifferent to you, that’s actually worse.”
Zara, whose third album Venus peaked at No15 in February, says she is no longer obsessing over numbers or chart places.
On the podcast Great Company with Jamie Laing, she added: “I’m doing it because I love it.
“And I’m doing it because I like to perform and I like to write songs and I like to sing.
“Then everything that comes with it, it’s amazing and it’s beautiful and it’s fantastic . . . but I can’t do it.”
I have to agree. In the age of streaming, it’s so easy for artists to get bogged down in plays and views.
First and foremost, it should be about the music.
Bizbit
I ENJOYED a nostalgic trip to see Blue last week during their Greatest Hits tour.
But before they even took to the stage, I was hooked.
Vegas-born rising star Max Rae is opening for the boys, bringing with her an array of Glasto-worthy sequin catsuits.
Max performed a cover of Spice Girls hit Wannabe as well as her latest single Keep You Waiting.
She is one to watch.
