1 edit | My bad...I thought that net income wouldn't include tax related issues...depreciation, taxes, regulatory costs also future debt obligations like pensions, stock options etc.
However, even at $808M, it's currently lower than it was in the past before the release of the DS (according to the article..."highest in 4 years"). The DS simply kept them from going out of business, but they are not what they used to be.

I do believe, however, that Net Income is before stock dividends are paid out, since those come off the bottom line. | |
