The profit to expense ratio of these tech companies is staggering.
It goes to show how arrogant they are in their monopolies that they’re willing to go through large layoffs to shave that down a little bit more.
I wish there was a little more competition in the enterprise computing space.

Looking at the net profit and the news about the layoffs. Damn, that is ugly behaviour.

LinkedIn brings in more than Windows. wtf.

Remarkable how Windows, one of their two early pillars (along with Office), is so small that it can be wrapped up along with ”Devices” and still be just a blip.
Gaming looks decent these days, top of Personal Computing.
Will be interesting to see how their early investment in OpenAI works out (and their bailing out Sam Altman).
Poor Bing.

$101.8 Billion in net profit and they had to take away the 10 Microsoft 365 Business Premium license grant for non-profits.
Is it interesting that they now pull in more revenue for cloud services than they do for Office (AKA 365)? Has this been true for long?

Gotta love a trillion dollar company paying half the income tax I do.

This shows two key insights:
1. Windows for PCs are a tiny blip for them and thus it’s no wonder that they don’t seem to be really interested in doing more about that than keeping it barely working
2. the US tax system is a joke – but also EU keeps failing to squeeze international corporations making money here

$101.8 billion in “Net Profit”.
Sweet Jesus. Fuckin bonker.
Gaming Division is ahead of Windows and Devices now.
The last SankeyArt FY24 Report shows Windows was $23.2 billion and Devices was $4.7 billion. Both were listed separately. Gaming was $21.5 billion.
They also just became a $4 trillion Market Cap company joining Nvidia.

Idk about you guys, but $25.7b on S&M feels like a lot.
Oh look another Sankey…. Yawn
I recommend listening to the acquired podcast on msft. Will provide a lot of insight into the company’s current income splits.
It would interesting to see where is Copilot here
