Depends on how you look at it and the interest of whoever is disclosing the numbers. There is a general consensus among economists that the profits made up for a lot of the costs, however, the economy stopping causes great losses that are very difficult to estimate. Most 'realiable' sources say the profits helped, but you still lost a bit. The most positive outlook is that the profits can make up for the costs, but still there wouldn't be anything left.
But I don't think that's relevant in the end.
