Also, according to Chairman and CEO Stephen Squeri, “Our full-year 2024 results set new records across key metrics. We delivered record revenues of $66 billion for the year, up 9 percent or 10 percent on an FX-adjusted basis1; and we had record annual net income of over $10 billion, or $14.01 per share, up 25 percent year-over-year including the gain from Accertify2. Full-year revenue growth was consistent with the growth aspirations we have for the company over the long-term, while EPS growth was higher.”
