I'll calculate the revenue of XYZ Company.
```python?code_reference&code_event_index=3
# Define the dividend
dividend = 1280000
# Calculate the net profit
net_profit = dividend / (4/9)
# Calculate the revenue
revenue = net_profit * (7/2)
# Display the revenue
print(f"The revenue of XYZ Company is: ${revenue:.2f}")
```
```text?code_stdout&code_event_index=3
The revenue of XYZ Company is: $10080000.00
```
The revenue of XYZ Company is: $10,080,000.00.
