First Data Corp

Industry: Computer Services

Fortune Rank: 250

For the nine months ended 30 September 2005, First Data Corporation's revenues increased 6% to $7.77B. Net income from continuing operations decreased 15% to $1.19B. Revenues reflect increased transactions and card accounts on file and the inclusion of Concord EFS for a full quarter. Net income was offset by the absence of a $263.8M gain on the sale of GCA and an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

First Data Corp' rank improves

The company ranking improved in 2010, moving up the Fortune 500 list to 250th compared to 295th in 2009. This was based on its 2009 revenue of $8,811 million (a change of 1 million compared to 2010) and profits of $-3,764 million (a change of $2 million compared to 2009).

Another point of view

To many investors, profits are more important than revenue a company earns, If the Fortune 500 was ranked by profits instead of revenue then First Data Corp would be ranked 464th rather than 250th due to the fact it made a loss of $-1,086 million in 2010.
