Many companies produce an annual report for their shareholders or employees. They want to provide a record of how the company did in the previous year and provide benchmarks for future years. While many annual reports are published as PDF files, creating a website annual report is useful as well.
This is a good portfolio project because you can showcase various styles of page designs. Accounting documents need to look different than executive bios, but all the pages need to be clearly part of the company and part of the annual report as a whole. If you choose to post it as a PDF, you'll also be able to show your Acrobat skills.

- Year in review - highlights
- Goals and challenges of the year and how the company performed against them
- Goals and challenges for the year to come
- Accounting documents such as Profit and Loss
