CA has said that it has been ranked #482 on the 2010 FORTUNE 500 list, after climbing 47 spots from last year. It also moved into the #4 position on FORTUNE’S Computer Software list.
In its statement, CA quoted FORTUNE editor-at-large Shawn Tully as saying that the unprecedented comeback being staged by US corporations is for the most part escaping notice. “For 2009, the FORTUNE 500 lifted earnings 335%, to $391 billion, a $301 billion jump that’s the second largest in the list’s 56-year history, approaching the increase in the robust recovery of 2003. For last year the 500 raised their return on sales from less than 1% to 4%. That’s close to the list’s 4.7% historical average.” The full list and will appear in the May 3 issue of FORTUNE, available on newsstands Monday, April 19, and would be available online at fortune.com/500. |
