Frequently asked questions

How does this differ from operating margin?
Operating margin measures what the core business keeps; net margin reflects interest, tax, and one-off items as well. Net is usually lower.
What if net profit is negative?
You get a negative percentage. Read it as the size of the loss relative to revenue.

What this tool does not cover

Quarters containing one-off items or accounting policy changes are poor for trend comparison. Comparing across different industries also needs care.
