"In the black" and "in the green" mean the same thing. "In the red" only means the inverse.

as i understand,
Black - close to break even with low taxes to pay
green - gaining money and being taxed for it..
Clearly, being on black mean you can turn to red quicker than if you are on green

Okay, I'd like a source on that interpretation, but okay. They weren't in the black either by the definition you have presented.

This is on the same page you commented

The word "green" doesn't even show on the investopedia page I linked, and especially no distinction is made between being in the green vs in the black like you have asserted.

i probably messed up.. Its not on investopedia...
From an accounting perspective, your income statement shows whether a business is in the green, black or red. Green means you have an operating profit, black means you are around break-even and red means you don't have enough revenue to meet operating expenses.
You get this from other sites, but those are not very solid references.
