What is Operating Income?
Operating income is the profit your company makes from its core business. It is calculated by subtracting operating expenses from operating revenue.
Operating income is a good metric to use when you are trying to determine the health of your company's core business. It is also a good metric to use when you are trying to determine if your company is making a profit or a loss.
For example, if your company's operating income is $10,000,000, your company is making a profit of $10,000,000. If your company's operating income is $5,000,000, your company is making a loss of $5,000,000.
