WASHINGTON — For the second straight year, overall defense revenues for the Top 100 defense companies in the world increased in 2017, a sign that the defense industry has weathered sequestration-related budget cuts and emerged on the other side.
Total 2017 defense revenues for the Top 100 companies came in at $375.4 billion, a 2.9 percent increase over the companies represented in the previous year’s list, according to numbers compiled by Defense News as part of the annual Top 100 list.
The top 25 companies accounted for a little more than 71 percent of total defense revenues in the year, and the top 10 firms accounted for 51.6 percent of total defense revenues in the year. While those percentages are both slightly lower than in 2016, it shows that the defense industry remains a top-heavy marketplace.
Geographically, 40 of the Top 100 firms are based in the U.S., which accounted for about 59 percent of total defense revenue. Both those numbers are down slightly from 2016.
