If you do the math, Flickr makes about 50-70 million per year in revenue.
It's probably past break-even point, but it's not too profitable for Yahoo. If it were, then Yahoo wouldn't let it stagnate for so long (although it could be argued that Flickr has immense potential and Yahoo failed to see it).
And that's why I said users are still the product. At scale, products have to go way beyond break even point, otherwise it's a drain of resources.
