Our profits may not be as big as our competitors', but we are fully aware that financial sustainability is of the utmost importance for a PPS pool. We try to maintain a reasonable "buffer" at all times, so that we can sustain relatively long periods of bad luck.
Also I'd like to mention that, even though litecoinpool.org was never profit-oriented, it's always been one of my favorite projects. I've never given up on it just because there was a lack of profitability (and in over 6 years that happened quite a few times), and I still don't intend to.

That is really great to hear! I love the community and litecoinpool, so I wanted to make sure that the project will continue well into the future. Keep up the fantastic work, pooler! I will be keeping my single A4+ here as long as I can do so profitably!
