annual revenue
The total sum of all income that a company generates through the sale of goods or services within a fiscal year, before costs are deducted.
Der Jahresumsatz des Konzerns lag im letzten Jahr bei über einer Milliarde Euro.
The corporation's annual revenue last year was over one billion euros.
The word is made up of 'Jahr' (year) and 'Umsatz' (revenue), connected by an '-es-'. So it literally describes the 'Umsatz eines Jahres' (revenue of a year).
Das Unternehmen konnte seinen Jahresumsatz deutlich steigern.
The company was able to significantly increase its annual revenue.
This word is a technical term from business and finance. It describes a company's gross income before expenses such as salaries or rent are deducted.
Die Analysten waren von dem hohen Jahresumsatz beeindruckt.
The analysts were impressed by the high annual revenue.
Common verbs used with 'Jahresumsatz' (annual revenue) are 'einen Jahresumsatz erzielen' (to achieve annual revenue) or 'erwirtschaften' (to generate). When talking about the amount, you use 'betragen' (to amount to) or 'liegen bei' (to be at).
Der Jahresumsatz des Start-ups beträgt bereits zwei Millionen Euro.

profit / prize
'der Gewinn' and 'der Jahresumsatz' are both used when talking about a company's success. 'der Jahresumsatz' is the total of all income from sales in one year, before costs are deducted. 'der Gewinn' is what remains after costs. The words are often confused because high annual revenue sounds good. But a company can generate a lot of revenue and still have little or no profit.

The company's annual revenue exceeded one million euros for the first time.
Trotz vieler Bestellungen war der Gewinn niedrig, weil die Kosten gestiegen sind.
