Maybe. But it was still a good 2023.
You are using a Xbot way of thinking...
Revenue means nothing if you keep having loses yet... I can have 1000% increase revenue but it I still losing money your company are fucked.
What really matters is that:
Revenue increase +599 (+23%) but the profit dropped 26.9 (-12%).
That is the typical scenario where a company grow without organization or plan... because they start to waste way more money than what they are getting with their new sales (revenue).... they are basically "paying" (yeap with money) to increase revenue.
They increase sales at the cost of lower profit.
That means they could have be better with lower sales (revenue).
Execs needs to see what happened to not let the same happened next quarter or FY.
The outlook is not good.
Xbots loves say MS increase their revenue in zillions % but what matters for a health business is not revenue but profit.
It is better to have lower revenue and bigger profits than bigger revenue with lower profits.
Some companies doesn't grow or attack others markets due that issue.... if going bigger means having less profits then it is not worth of it.
