Change your name to Christopher Hymen.

For a company that big, it sure don't make a lot of money. Annual revenue 4 Billion, that's half a billion less than HTC, and HTC's got 14 times less employees. I don't see what's so special about Serco.

pittsy · 08-29-2010, 09:09 PM

wow!

i guarantee you that is under reported and not truly what they earn each year

+1. If they really manage all of that, they certainly earn more than $4B. Unless they are hired as consultants by all those government organizations, which would be a different scenario.

The other thing is HTC is a products company, that earns on average, a couple of $100 on each sale. Their revenue is the full sale. This is a management firm, and their reported revenue is the service. So in the case of Canadians and the licensing, this company's revenue is not the $125 license fee, but their portion of the fee, which is significantly less than the full sale.

Vizio's annual revenue was 2 billion in 2007. Yeah Serco's revenue would sound more reasonable as the net profit.

Seemed like managing ballistic missiles and nuclear arsenal would cost more.
