No it doesn’t. You don’t pay tax on revenue, you pay it on profit. From what I can see before the paywall text shows, they barely made any profit.

Profits are easy to fudge. You just pay your parent company some license fee or something and voila no profits.

Sure, but the headline doesn’t say it all because you don’t pay tax on revenue.
