How to Read an Income Statement as an Investor
A company can report higher profit while its underlying business becomes weaker. Revenue may have grown because the company raised prices rather than sold more products. Profit may have increased because it sold a building, reversed an earlier loss or recorded a foreign-exchange gain. Earnings per share may have fallen because the company issued millions of new shares. The headline profit does not tell the full story. To understand how a company made its money, an investor must read the income statement.
