BLKBlackRock, Inc.
Every company that sells shares in the US files four statements with the SEC. Together they show whether BlackRock made money, what it owns and owes, where its cash went, and what changed for its shareholders. Below is every line exactly as BlackRock filed it, with what each one means in plain English.

Read it from the top down. It starts with everything customers paid (sales), takes away the cost of making what was sold, then the costs of running the company, then interest and tax. What is left at the bottom is profit (net income), the part that belongs to shareholders. It covers a stretch of time: a year, or a quarter.

Some value changes don't count as profit yet: currency moves on businesses abroad, rises or falls in investments it hasn't sold, and some hedges and pension changes. They are added to profit here to give comprehensive income, and they build up in shareholders' equity.
