I assume because not as many people bought stuff as they anticipated.

But you need to compare it to the revenue and value of the company. A
company that loses $50m but is only worth $150m is in trouble, but one
worth $30000m probably doesn't need to worry about losing $50m in a bad
year.

Because the shareholders believe you have a plan to make profit at some
point...
