About this data

How is the economic scale comparison calculated?
We compare Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated's Trailing Twelve Months (TTM) revenue to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of countries. We find the country whose GDP is closest to but less than the company's revenue, or the smallest country if the company is larger than all.
What does it mean when revenue exceeds a country's GDP?
When Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated's revenue exceeds a country's GDP, it means the company generates more revenue in a year than that entire country's economic output. It's a striking way to visualize corporate scale.
