Yahoo's operating income since Mayer took seat.

2012: 802.5M 2013: 579.4M 2014: 218.7M 2015: -127.5M

Wait til 2016 numbers come in.

Revenue flat at $5 billion.

Ouch that's painful to look at.
Now, those numbers do not explain everything.

Consider Uber revenue, and operating income ... the numbers are horrible, but the overall outlook is obviously different.

Uber's revenue

2013: 160m 2014: 440m 2015: 1.5 billion

Yahoo's revenue

2012 - 2015: 5 billion flat, with dip in the middle.

Uber experienced explosive growth in user base... can't say the same about Yahoo.

Apple - orange comparison.

So... Uber's revenue is still less than Yahoo's, right?

Explosive growth? If you are losing money, like Uber is, that means exploding loss. Is that good?

How about operating income? They both seem to be bleeding money.

Found the yahoo shareholder.
