The company ranking improved in 2010, moving up the Fortune 500 list to 48th compared to 49th in 2009. This was based on its 2009 revenue of $46,770 million (a change of -2 million compared to 2010) and profits of $53 million (a change of $182 million compared to 2009).

Another point of view

To many investors, profits are more important than the revenue a company earns. If the Fortune 500 was ranked by profits instead of revenue then Sears Holdings Corporation would be ranked 301st rather than 48th due to its profits of $235 in 2010.
