Revenue: What It Means and the Latest Company News
Revenue is all the money a company takes in from selling its goods and services. It is also called sales, or the top line, because it sits at the top of the income statement.
In earnings stories, revenue is usually the second number after EPS. Analysts publish an estimate before each report. A company can beat on profit, miss on revenue and still see its stock fall. The profit may have come from cutting costs rather than selling more.

Is revenue the same as income?
No. Revenue is money in from sales. Income, or net income, is what is left after all costs and taxes. It is sometimes called the bottom line.
Why do investors care about a revenue miss?
Revenue shows demand for what the company sells. A miss can mean customers are buying less. Cost cuts can prop up profit for a while, but not forever.
