Again with revenue........let me make this simple so you can understand. Apparently you slept through economics class....if you produce something let's say widgets it costs money called operating costs....when you sell those widgets that's is what is called revenue. Now the hard part,when a company is first starting out it costs money to set up offices warehouses plants collection of materials and employees to make a profit because you haven't sold enough widgets....YET. Once you are in business longer your overhead gets smaller...then you start seeing profits. Anything from small diners to major corporations have somewhat of a loss starting out. That's why shareholders buy into a company and that company releases shares to cover the initial and growing costs.
