It's technically true but not the whole truth. Those calculations leave out certain costs such as the value of the stocks given to employees, the cost of training new models and revenue shared with partners like Amazon. It's not that uncommon practice with technology companies when wanting to show inverstors a cleaner picture of the core business but it does not mean that the company as whole has become profitable.
