The last 10 fiscal years, from SEC filings#
Today's members' combined results by fiscal year — actual filed dollars, so the COVID dip and the rebound are the real thing, not revisions.

Current members summed by fiscal year (calendar year of each company's fiscal year-end), as filed with the SEC. Earlier years include fewer companies (recent IPOs have no FY2016 filing) — the Companies column shows the changing coverage; growth compares the totals as shown. Revenue excludes most financials (no clean revenue line, by design).
Net margin by fiscal year#
What the Nasdaq-100's members keep of every dollar of revenue — aggregate net income ÷ aggregate revenue, back to FY2008. Rising margin is why earnings have grown faster than sales.
Both sides are summed over today's members, so this is the margin of the current index, not of whoever was in it at the time — composition change is part of what moves the line. Members without a clean revenue line (most financials) are excluded from both the numerator and the denominator.
FAQ#
- How much do Nasdaq-100 companies earn?
- Aggregate trailing-twelve-month net income across the members we track is about $1.30T (96 companies, from their SEC filings), +56.6% versus the same companies a year earlier. Aggregate TTM revenue is about $5.69T.
- How fast do Nasdaq-100 earnings grow?
- Over the last 10 fiscal years, today's members' combined net income grew from $227B (FY2016) to $851B (FY2025) — about 15.8%/yr, with the usual cyclical swings along the way.
- Where do these numbers come from?
- Current aggregates are summed from each member's trailing-twelve-month net income exactly as filed with the SEC (our EDGAR pipeline), weighted by nothing — it's a plain sum, so it's the actual dollars earned. Growth compares the same member set year over year, so index membership changes don't distort it.
Notes & related#
Aggregates sum each tracked member's TTM net income / revenue from our SEC EDGAR pipeline (a few members lack a clean revenue line by design — mostly financials; a handful of foreign-domiciled members outside our universe are excluded). YoY growth is computed on a matched set: only members with a filed TTM window both now and a year ago, so membership churn doesn't pollute the rate. See who earns the most on the most profitable companies list, or what you pay for those earnings at the index P/E. Not investment advice.
