Revenue can be a very misleading measurement of success. I agree that $4 billion in revenue is very impressive, especially considering the rate of Groupon's revenue growth, but overall losses and no profit plans any time soon, leaves me disappointed. What impresses me more is a company generating $10 million in revenue with $7 million in profit. Will Groupon eventually make money...maybe, but I'm not sure it will happen any time soon nor with their current business model. Groupon has two very valuable assets that I believe will eventually be used as the reasoning for an acquisition by Amazon or Google: 1) a large and growing list of consumers and 2) their buying habits.
