new venture lost profits

New venture lost profits refer to the potential earnings a business failed to achieve because it did not start or expand as planned. These are the profits the business owner expected to make had the project been successful. In legal or financial contexts, this calculation estimates the difference between actual profits and what could have been earned if the venture had gone forward. It helps measure the economic impact of setbacks or opportunities missed, providing a clear picture of financial harm caused by circumstances beyond the business's control.
