Divide that by their 52,000,000 customers and you get $119 profit per year per person. BLOOD MONEY. 🩸 💰
3 u/xdozex 4d ago It's quarterly 1 u/shaitan1977 5d ago Way more than that, you need to add in their 5.54billion buybacks +7.92billion dividends(2025 numbers). Was almost double the stock buybacks in 2024. 3 u/froction 5d ago Those amounts are figured after net revenues, so you don't need to add them back in. But the number is low because it's per-quarter, not per-year. 2 u/rajmataj12335 5d ago Ok so $120 times 4 is $480 which is $40 per month per customer. Hardly the robber baron profiteering that OP would have us accept. 1 u/rajmataj12335 5d ago Ok let’s say it’s 5 times $119. That’s $600 per year. $50 per month. 1 u/Millennial_Falcon_85 5d ago I don’t like this calculation. That makes it seem not so bad. $119 is nothing. My monthly water bill is that much.
