Credit Card Processors and Profit Margins

Excerpts from one of the nation's largest credit card processor's Second Quarter 2009 earnings call:

2009 2nd Quarter REVENUES
"Transaction processing volume continues to reflect economic weakness. Same store sales were negative for the fifth consecutive quarter this quarter down a record 9.7%."

2009 2nd Quarter MARGINS
"Although revenue growth slowed in the quarter, margins rose sequentially to 14.7%."

Doesn't the above story tell it all?
