One called Hampton Music Ltd was valued at £17,300 last year, while the singer’s Hampton Records Ltd – which was worth £300,000 in 2022 – had decreased to just below £75,000, accounts show.
His live music arm, Long Play Touring LLP, also saw its value dwindle from about £135,000 in 2022 to just £17,000 last year.
Finally, his firm Hampton Publishing Ltd was valued at only £729.
Tragically, the musician was in talks for a 2025 tour before his death.
The star was reportedly in negotiations for a series of live dates next year but friends were concerned he would not be able to handle time on the road.
A source told The Mirror: ‘When it emerged that Liam had been talking to new people about a series of dates, there was a great deal of unease among his friends that this was a bad idea.
‘Liam had split from his management about six months ago, and it would not have been something they would have recommended at the current time.’
Liam previously opened up about his second solo album at a fan event and revealed all the songs told a story from his life.
He said: ‘This time, the scariest part is that every one of these songs is a story from my life. And they’re really close to me.
‘I hope people feel that through every song, that I actually felt whatever it is you’re feeling right now listening to this.’
He added: ‘We’ve rewritten a lot of these songs based off the idea of where we’re going with this and also how I’m feeling as a person.
‘I used to show up to sing a song, then go. Absolutely not this time. We’re going to have fun with this.’
Prior to his death he had been enjoying an elongated holiday in Argentina with girlfriend Kate Cassidy (seen with the singer)
