Largest companies in the United Kingdom by gross profit
Gross profit is revenue minus the direct cost of goods and services sold. Not every company reports it; those that do not are absent from this ranking. Figures are for fiscal year 2025 and are read directly from each company's SEC filings; the source column on every row links to the document.
AstraZeneca (AZN) tops the list with $48.1B in gross profit for fiscal 2025, ahead of GSK ($31.2B) and Unilever ($26.8B). The top 10 together report $156B in gross profit; the gap between #1 and #10 is ×16.97. 20 companies in the United Kingdom report gross profit, 1.3% of the 1524-filer universe. The last place on the list, Luxfer Holdings, comes in at $89.2M.
