What is an income statement?

An income statement, also known as a profit and loss statement, is a crucial financial document that provides a snapshot of a company's financial performance over a specific period, typically a quarter or a year. It outlines the company's revenues, expenses, and ultimately, its net income or net loss during that timeframe. This statement offers valuable insights into a company's ability to generate profits, manage costs, and operate efficiently.

Investors, analysts, and stakeholders use income statements to evaluate a company's profitability, assess its financial health, make informed investment decisions, and compare its performance to industry peers. By detailing the revenue-generating activities and cost structures, an income statement offers a comprehensive overview of a company's operational efficiency and financial viability.
