Communication Services
Every company the library holds in this sector, 167 of them across 7 industries and the library’s three pools, one row each. The columns are the lines this sector’s members can all answer, so a bank and an exchange, or a chipmaker and a software company, can be read down the same column without either being flattered. Some kinds of business are read on instruments this table cannot carry, and those appear when you narrow to them: Telecom Operators, Media & Broadcasting, Entertainment & Studios, Interactive Media & Platforms, Video Games, Advertising & Marketing and Publishing. Pick one in the second control above, or follow any Industry cell in the table. Elsewhere in this sector the industry table shows these same columns over fewer companies.
Rows open largest first by latest-year revenue, and every column sorts both ways; a sorted view keeps its order in the address bar. Sorting by Industry gathers the sector into contiguous blocks, one industry at a time, if that is how you want to read it. Margins and returns are medians over each company’s readable record, the through-cycle level rather than one year’s print. A dash is a figure that could not be read; n/a is one that does not apply to that member, which is a refusal rather than a gap, and whole industries here will read n/a where a sector column is a category error for the way they earn. Both sit at the back of a sorted column.

As a group: median revenue $2.2B (read on 159 of 167); median operating margin 8.9% (read on 167 of 167); median owner earnings $181M (read on 143 of 167); median return on invested capital 5.4% (read on 158 of 167); 60 of 151 hold net cash. Medians of this table’s own columns, over the members each applies to · data as of July 18, 2026.
Every figure is recomputed from the company’s own SEC or EDINET filings, the same way as on its page; the columns name facts, weigh nothing, and form no rank. The three pools this surface reads are the US, ADR and Japanese ones, so a count here will not match the European records the catalog also holds. Foreign filers are stated in US dollars at the dated reference rate (as of 2026-08-01) so each money column sorts on one basis; their own pages keep the records as filed. A foreign filer whose conversion terms are missing shows its money as filed and sorts to the back of the column, never a guessed conversion. Ratios and margins are currency-free.
