When it comes to corporate tax avoidance, the only headlines to take seriously are "Company x paid x amount of tax on x profits". If it says "Company x made x amount of revenue" or "Company x had x income last year" its not worth reading, companies are taxed on profit, not revenue.

There are some revenue based taxes. (For example municipal corporate taxes in Hungary, about 1% of annual revenue.)
