Revenue of Top Tech Giants In 2016

Definitely, it’s not rocket science to know that each of these tech giants has a suite of offerings that attract tens of billions of dollars in revenues every quarter. However, there is always one product/service that contributes the maximum to the overall company’s financial book.

Interestingly, not many of us are aware of the revenue contribution from each product these five tech giants offer.

Folks at Visualcapitalist recently curated revenue figures by product/service wise to come out with an attractive infographic, which highlights some of the surprising facts as well. The data is a bit old but it gives a good enough idea about billion of dollars that each of these companies accumulates every quarter.

  • Nearly two-thirds of Apple revenue depends on the sales of iPhone.
  • Apple, Alphabet and Microsoft report nearly 20% of its revenue as earnings, while Revenue vs Earning ratio is much lower, nearly 1.5%, for Amazon.
