​P&L stands for Profit and Loss. It is a financial statement that summarizes the revenues, costs, and expenses incurred during a specific period, typically a fiscal quarter or year. The purpose of the P&L statement is to provide an overview of a company's ability to generate profits by increasing revenue, reducing costs, or both.

The P&L statement starts with the revenue section, which includes sales, service fees, and any other income generated by the company's core activities. The next section deducts the cost of goods sold (COGS), which includes the direct costs associated with producing or delivering the company's products or services. The resulting figure is called the gross profit.

After the gross profit, the P&L statement deducts operating expenses, such as salaries, rent, utilities, marketing expenses, and other costs incurred in the day-to-day operations of the business. The difference between the gross profit and operating expenses is the operating profit or operating income.

The P&L statement then accounts for non-operating income and expenses, such as interest income or expenses, gains or losses from the sale of assets, and other items not directly related to the company's core operations. The result is the net profit or net income before taxes.

Finally, taxes are deducted to arrive at the net profit or net income after taxes, which represents the company's overall profitability for the specified period.

The P&L statement is a crucial financial tool for businesses as it provides insights into their financial performance, profitability, and potential areas of improvement. It is used by management, investors, and other stakeholders to assess the company's financial health and make informed decisions.
