List of largest companies by revenue - wikipedia List of largest companies by revenue This list comprises the world 's largest businesses by consolidated revenue as of 2016, according to the Fortune Global 500 tally. The list is limited to 35 companies, all of which have annual revenues exceeding $120 billion US dollars. The availability and reliability of up - to - date information on prior state - owned companies is limited ( for example Saudi Aramco does not publish any financial data ) and varies from country to country ; thus, this list may be incomplete. This list is shown in U.S. dollars, but many of the companies on it prepare their accounts in other currencies. The dollar value of their revenue may change substantially in a short period of time due to exchange rate fluctuations.
