Top Companies by Operating Income — Consumer Cyclical

Trailing twelve months (TTM) operating income — also called operating profit or EBIT — is revenue minus cost of goods sold and minus operating expenses (SG&A, R&D, depreciation), summed across the most recent four fiscal quarters. It measures what the core business earns before interest and taxes, before any financing decisions distort the result.

Operating income sits between gross profit (which strips only direct costs) and net income (which subtracts interest and taxes too). Compared to EBITDA, it includes depreciation and amortization, so capex-heavy and asset-light businesses are not treated equally.
