For the three months ended July 31, 2022, revenue, gross profit, and net income were $883.4 million, $381.6 million, and $263.7 million, respectively. These represent an increase in revenue of $134.8 million, or 18.0%; an increase in gross profit of $24.1 million, or 6.7%; and an increase in net income of $7.8 million, or 3.0%, respectively, from the same period last year.

For the year ended July 31, 2022, revenue, gross profit, and net income were $3.5 billion, $1.6 billion, and $1.1 billion, respectively. These represent an increase in revenue of $808.4 million, or 30.0%; an increase in gross profit of $263.1 million, or 19.6%; and an increase in net income of $153.6 million, or 16.4%, respectively, from the same period last year.

Excluding the impact of acquisition related integration charges, extinguishment of debt, and certain income tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for the three months ended July 31, 2022 and 2021, were $1.13 and $1.03, respectively, which was an increase of 9.7%. Excluding the impact of certain discrete income tax items, acquisition related integration charges, extinguishment of debt, certain legal matters, and certain income tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, non-GAAP fully diluted earnings per share for the year ended July 31, 2022 and 2021, were $4.46 and $3.70, respectively, which was an increase of 20.5%.
