minus-squarelolcatnip@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up48arrow-down1·1 year agoI don’t know where you’re getting that number but it’s definitely wrong. Their most profitable year so far was 2021, and they made $39.4 billion for the entire year. Source
minus-squareDraces@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up12arrow-down1·1 year agoYou also have to consider how much of that profit is from operating in Norway.
minus-squareEch@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8arrow-down1·1 year agoSo assuming things haven’t changed too much for them, this is about 1%. Barely noticeable.
minus-squareObi@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 year agoI mean, I want them to pay as much as possible, but 1% of their global revenue, for just a small country like Norway, still seems pretty decent.
minus-squarebiddy@feddit.nllinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 year agoNo, it’s 0.1%. But Norway could be less than 1% of their market, so it’s somewhat significant.
