When you drop your pricing from a post-paid $99 for voice, $39 for data, and $20 for texting, and instead charge $59.99 for everything together, of course your revenue is going to drop. it doesn’t mean profitability drops. Lightyear decreased it’s prices, just as Verizon, ATT, Sprint and TMobile have been dropping their prices. The big 4′s revenue is going down too, but you can bet they are doing just fine, as is Lightyear. The good thing is, Lightyear’s margin is the same even though the price is less. So, the customer gets a better price, Lightyear keeps the same margins of profit. Why does the revenue even matter? I thought profit is what mattered, not revenue.

Troy LY are making massive losses…please investigate for dist sake…

Check out this excerpt from their latest filing. Pay close attention to the wireless revenue decline.

Revenues

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $11.3 million and $16.5 million, respectively, a decrease of $5.2 million or 32%. Voice revenues decreased $1.7 million or 24%, to $5.0 million from $6.7 million. Local service revenues decreased $0.3 million or 12%, to $2.1 million from $2.4 million. The decrease in voice and local revenues is primarily due to many small and medium business customers moving to integrated solutions that combine voice, local and data into one VoIP solution for a much lower cost. Also many residential customers are abandoning their local lines and moving to wireless only service. VoIP revenues decreased $0.3 million or Q18%, to $1.0 million from $1.3 million. While business VoIP revenues are up, our residential VoIP revenues are down, due to a shift in sales focus from VoIP to wireless service. Data revenues decreased $0.4 million or 27%, to $1.0 million from $1.4 million, due to the loss of a large frame relay customer. Wireless revenues decreased $1.9 million or 74%, to $0.6 million from $2.5 million, which is reflective of a more cautious marketing program after an aggressive rollout of our wireless product in late 2009.
