The corporations on our annual list of the world's 500 largest companies combined to generate $41.7 trillion in revenue over the past year.

Fortune Global 500

The corporations on our annual list posted aggregate revenues of $41 trillion for the second year in a row.

Fortune collaborated with the Diligent Institute to rank the most innovative boards of directors among S&P 500.

Schlumberger, the oil field services company, makes its Modern Board 25 debut this year thanks to its effectiveness and independence, with 10 of its 12 directors independent. But the offshore drilling company, relabeled as SLB in 2022, has garnered criticism for continuing operations in Russia after its Ukraine invasion; SLB says it has stopped new investments and new technology deployments there. The Texas-based company, led by chief executive Olivier Le Peuch, separates its CEO and chair roles. Its 12-member board, three of whom are women, includes Peter Coleman, former CEO of Woodside Petroleum; Patrick de La Chevardière, former chief financial officer of Total S.A.; and Maria Moræus Hanssen, former deputy CEO and chief operating officer of Wintershall Dea GmbH. The company says its mission is to drive high-performance sustainability by balancing the opportunities and risks associated with energy transition and climate change.

China’s 95 companies (up from 89 last year) posted $5.8 trillion in revenues. The U.S. has four fewer companies on the list than last year but remains (for now) the country leader, with 128 corporations on the list—including No. 1 Wal-Mart Stores—reporting $8.6 trillion in revenues.
