A 3.7% drop in sales may be a lot of money but they are still making huge amount of profits.

In the last few years they have lost 10 per cent of their share of the market and yes they are still making considerable profits but if the big ship keeps on sailing in the same direction then it is heading straight into a iceberg because if it does not adapt soon those huge profits can disappear very quickly in a quickly changing market
