@jonathandflood  before one can answer , we need to know what type of  "company" are you talking about -- a single owner  business, an LLC,  a partnership, S-Corp, C-Corp, Trust / Foundation  etc.or what ?

Assuming that you have a single owner/proprietor business  { shop, contractor/self-employed etc. ), the business  is  treated as a dis-regarded entity  for tax purposes. Thus you  report the business income and expenses on Schedule-C  and along with your  individual return.  Is this your case ?

My company is an LLC, however there are no partners, I am the full owner.

You don't need to file a separate federal tax return for your single member LLC, instead you report your business income on your personal tax return, Schedule C. However, depending on the state of your residency, you might need to file business state return with your state.
