Revenue Analysis
Over the three years, OLLI’s Total and Operating Revenue have shown fluctuations. In the latest available quarter (2024-01-31), Total Revenue stood at $648.949 million, compared to $480.050 million in 2023-04-30, indicating significant growth. Gross Profit also increased from $178.571 million in 2023-04-30 to $262.999 million in 2024-01-31. This suggests an improvement in revenue management and possibly an enhanced market position.
Cost Management
Cost of Revenue and Operating Expense have also risen in correlation with revenue. As of 2024-01-31, the Cost of Revenue was $385.950 million, which is substantially higher than the $280.583 million reported in 2023-04-30. This increase might be reflective of higher sales volume or prices of goods sold. Total Expenses significantly increased to $551.295 million in 2024-01-31 from $420.615 million in 2023-04-30, which could impact profitability if not controlled.
