    They still made around $1/2 BILLION.

    I love how every headline about their earnings focuses on the drop from before and not on the actual number they made.

    Boo-fucken-hoo the record profits they were making the last few years couldn’t be sustained forever. Oh noes!1!!!

        Maybe if it was revenue. Such a drop in profits could be from many ordinary business operations like expansion

          It states in the article that it is from less than expected sales, no?
