net profits
Revenue minus expenses
Net profits are what remains after all expenses, taxes, and costs have been subtracted from total revenue—the actual money a business keeps.
Distinguished from gross profits, which only subtract the direct cost of goods sold.
The company reported strong net profits despite rising material costs.
Also called the bottom line, from its position on financial statements.
