Fewer shares, not more profit, lifted earnings per share
Net income was flat, yet diluted earnings per share rose to $2.35 from $2.27 because the share count fell.
Selling and admin costs grew 2.8 times as fast as revenue; the filing pins that mainly on a loss on assets held for sale.
New .com and .net registrations reached 13.1 million against 10.6 million, and the filing names AI website tools as one driver.
Verisign is the sole registry for .com, and its agreements let it raise the wholesale fee within set limits.
