Joe Lonsdale, founder & investor at 8VC; Palantir (co-founder), observes that it is rare for GAAP net income to be significantly higher than total revenue for the same quarter a year ago.
This comparison draws attention to an unusual financial occurrence in corporate reporting.
Lonsdale has previously argued that taxing illiquid assets before exit can lead to negative consequences. In another commentary, he reflected on Mike Milken's influence on U.S. finance and philanthropy, while warning about potential risks of government power abuse. His recent observation adds to a pattern of public remarks on accounting practices and regulatory issues.
