Revenue by geography

- United Kingdom
| Region | FY2025 | FY2024 | FY2023 |
|---|---|---|---|
| United States | $1.42B | $1.34B | $1.27B |

As the company reported it, from the “SEGMENT INFORMATION - Geographic Revenue (Details)” note of its latest 10-K. Every figure here has been checked against the total revenue the same filing reported. Regions are the filer's own and are not mapped onto a standard list — one company's “Americas” and another's “United States” are different areas, and making them look comparable would mean making at least one of them wrong. Slices under 1% are folded into “Other”.
Revenue by segment
- Americas
- Emea
- Asia Pacific
| Segment | FY2025 | FY2024 | FY2023 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Americas | $1.51B | $1.42B | $1.34B |
| Emea | $580.3M | $563.1M | $539.8M |
| Asia Pacific | $235.4M | $220.0M | $210.2M |
As the company reported it, from the “SEGMENT INFORMATION - Results of Operations (Details)” note of its latest 10-K. Every figure here has been checked against the total revenue the same filing reported. Segments are the filer's own reporting structure, which is a decision about how it runs itself rather than a standard taxonomy: two companies in the same industry routinely divide themselves along different lines, so these are worth reading down a single company rather than across two. Slices under 1% are folded into “Other”.
