net result

Bottom line conclusion

The net result is the final outcome after all factors, gains, and losses have been accounted for.

It emphasizes what remains when everything is tallied: The net result of all our efforts was a modest profit.

Often used to cut through complexity and state the bottom line: The net result is that nothing has changed.
