"This leaves up with a retained profit"

Hi.

We are, however, paying the dividend we promised to shareholders of $95m –- which works out at 50 cents a share.
This leaves up with a retained profit of $422m. This figure will increase considerably over the next quarters.
What does the underlined phrase mean?
Can you kindly tell me which definition the "leave" is in http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/leave_1

Best Wishes

Hi, The word 'up' is a typo for 'us'. Now, please reconsider the sentence. Then ask again, if you are still unclear.
