The Net Income of a company is its total profit or earnings. It is the company's revenue minus costs (expenses, interest, depreciation, taxes).
The Net Income, also called Net Earnings and Net Profit, can be used by a company to distribute dividends and it can be held as retained earnings.
As with the Revenues figure, the Net income is also available in the company's income statement; it is referred to as the "bottom line" because it is available at the bottom of the income statement, while the Revenues is referred to as the "top line" because you can find it at the top of the income statement.
The Net Income is a very important measure of the profitability of a company. It is used to calculate several financial and fundamental ratios including the earnings per share.

Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
