How to read this flow diagram as an investor:Revenue represents gross sales ($100). Before any profit can reach you, the company must first pay suppliers (COGS), its workforce & engineers (Human Capital), rent & technology (SG&A), lenders (Interest), and the government (Taxes). What remains is Net Profit (Diluted EPS). Healthy companies divide this profit between Cash Dividends, Share Buybacks (retiring shares to boost your percentage ownership), and CapEx Reinvestment to build new capacity for future years.
