"profits" is plural, which doesn't go with "...it fell". Change "...it fell" to "...they fell", at the very least.
I'm really old, but I'll never be too old to become more educated.

Look at the Pronoun 'it' in the underlined portion- 'It' is supposed to refer back to profits not to the company and so this is a Pronoun Agreement mistake.

Ask yourself (whenever you see a pronoun): What is the Pronoun supposed to refer to? If the pronoun illogically refers to something it is not supposed to, there is an Agreement mistake. If the pronoun doesn't refer to anything or refers to more than one noun, there there is an Ambiguity problem.
