What is revenue?
Revenue is the top-line amount a company reports from its business activity.
Concept
On grepcent company pages, annual revenue comes from SEC companyfacts and is shown by fiscal year.
Worked Example: Read Walmart's latest reported revenue

- The latest annual revenue point is $713.2 billion for fiscal 2026.
- This is the starting line for many company calculations, including margins and revenue growth.
