1 Q2 2024 Calculation
Gross profit margin = 100 × (Gross marginQ2 2024 + Gross marginQ1 2024 + Gross marginQ4 2023 + Gross marginQ3 2023) ÷ (RevenueQ2 2024 + RevenueQ1 2024 + RevenueQ4 2023 + RevenueQ3 2023)
= 100 × (1,757,455 + 1,654,702 + 1,458,129 + 1,605,612) ÷ (3,758,259 + 3,482,062 + 3,207,257 + 3,869,569) = 45.23%

1 Q2 2024 Calculation
Operating profit margin = 100 × (Operating incomeQ2 2024 + Operating incomeQ1 2024 + Operating incomeQ4 2023 + Operating incomeQ3 2023) ÷ (RevenueQ2 2024 + RevenueQ1 2024 + RevenueQ4 2023 + RevenueQ3 2023)
= 100 × (1,057,212 + 1,023,029 + 854,605 + 942,253) ÷ (3,758,259 + 3,482,062 + 3,207,257 + 3,869,569) = 27.08%

1 Q2 2024 Calculation
ROA = 100 × (Net income (loss)Q2 2024 + Net income (loss)Q1 2024 + Net income (loss)Q4 2023 + Net income (loss)Q3 2023) ÷ Total assets
= 100 × (954,266 + 887,398 + 802,537 + 814,008) ÷ 18,783,852 = 18.41%
