what happened
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway reported that its third-quarter net earnings attributable to shareholders fell to $22.112 billion, or $15,502 per Class A share. A year earlier the figure was $30.796 billion, or $21,413 per Class A share. The data was reported by TradingView, citing RTTNews.
Investment gains dropped to $9.407 billion from $17.311 billion, while operating earnings slipped to $12.705 billion from $13.485 billion. Total revenues, however, rose to $105.647 billion from $94.972 billion.
Class A shares closed Friday's regular session at $856,612, down $88, or 0.01%. In after-hours trading the stock fell a further $612.25, or 0.07%.
why it matters
The main drag on the bottom line was lower investment gains, which depend on portfolio revaluations and tend to swing sharply from quarter to quarter. Operating earnings declined far less, so investors often look at them separately. Higher revenue points to a bigger business, but for the market the earnings trend matters most.
