Is it obligatory to distribute a quarter of the revenues currently to the poor and needy, or a quarter of the profits when they are realized, based on a vow of a quarter of the company's profits?

Profit is what remains for the merchant after deducting sales expenses. Therefore, if this is what is meant, the one who made the vow is only required to give a quarter of the project's net income after deducting its expenses.
