Because each company uses its own accounting methods, the data cannot be considered strictly comparable. They are only indicative of trends. This table does not include Nestlé, which, as a Swiss holding company, reports only limited information in Moody's; its 1969 net profit was 146 million Swiss francs.

^{Page 425 note 2} Source and footnote as for Table 5. Net income may be arbitrarily influenced by company decisions as to allocation of funds between costs, as well as among branches and affiliates. Three Anglo-American affiliates, for example, reported net income totalling $53.1 million, considerably more than that of the holding company itself. More important than the actual amounts would appear to be the trends, which suggest that from 1963 to 1969 some copper companies almost doubled or trebled their net profits.
