--- title: "Capital One: Competitors" description: "Capital One compared with companies that share its SEC industry classification: revenue, growth and margins from SEC filings, and how the peer group is chosen." canonical: https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/capital-one/competitors/ source: "Swoopr Investment: https://www.getswoopr.com" --- # Capital One: Competitors & Industry Structure ## Direct Answer SEC EDGAR classifies Capital One under SIC code 6021 (National Commercial Banks). Among Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight companies, 21 others share that classification; by latest reported revenue, Capital One ranks 5 of 22. A filing classification is a starting point: a company's real competitors depend on its segments, which its 10-K describes. ## How Does Capital One Compare With Its Peers? | Company | Revenue (latest FY) | Revenue growth | Operating margin | Net margin | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [JPMorgan Chase (JPM)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/jpmorgan-chase/) | $182 billion FY2025 | 2.8% | n/a | 31.2% | | [Bank of America (BAC)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/bank-of-america/) | $113 billion FY2025 | 6.8% | n/a | 27.0% | | [Citigroup (C)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/citigroup/) | $85.2 billion FY2025 | 5.6% | n/a | 16.8% | | [Wells Fargo (WFC)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/wells-fargo/) | $83.7 billion FY2025 | 1.7% | n/a | 25.5% | | **Capital One (COF)** | $53.4 billion FY2025 | 36.6% | n/a | 4.6% | | [U.S. Bancorp (USB)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/u-s-bancorp/) | $28.7 billion FY2025 | 4.4% | n/a | 26.4% | | [PNC Financial Services (PNC)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/pnc-financial-services/) | $23.1 billion FY2025 | 7.2% | n/a | 30.3% | | [Truist Financial (TFC)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/truist-financial/) | $20.3 billion FY2025 | 53.0% | n/a | 26.1% | | [Regions Financial Corporation (RF)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/regions-financial-corporation/) | $7.5 billion FY2025 | 6.3% | n/a | 28.6% | | [KeyCorp (KEY)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/keycorp/) | $7.5 billion FY2025 | 62.7% | n/a | 24.3% | | [First Horizon Corporation (FHN)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/first-horizon-corporation/) | $3.4 billion FY2025 | 7.2% | n/a | 28.7% | | [Cullen/Frost Bankers Inc.

Fiscal years do not always end on the same date, so treat close comparisons with care. ## How Does Capital One Rank Among All SEC Filers in Its Industry Code? 22 companies with annual reports in Swoopr's SEC dataset share SIC code 6021 (National Commercial Banks), a wider group than the S&P 500 Equal Weight companies above. Ranks run from 1 (highest) and use each company's latest fiscal year, in U.S. dollars. | Measure | Capital One | Median of filers | Rank | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Revenue | $53.4 billion | $2.8 billion | 5 of 22 | | Revenue growth | 36.6% | 6.6% | 3 of 22 | | Net margin | 4.6% | 30.8% | 22 of 22 | A SIC code reflects the filer's main business as the SEC records it, so the group mixes companies of very different size; the median is a better guide than the average, and a rank near the top by revenue says nothing about quality. ## Where These Numbers Come From Every figure on this page is a value Capital One reported in its own SEC filings, read from the SEC's XBRL data (accession 0000927628-26-000024 for fiscal year 2025). Ratios are computed from those reported values. Figures were retrieved on October 12, 2026; a later amendment or a new annual report can change them, and the filing itself always takes precedence over this summary. Each fiscal year is labeled by the calendar year in which it ended, so a company that names the same period differently in its own filings (many retailers whose year ends in January) may use another label. A year is left out of the table when the SEC data set holds no value for it. A figure shown as "Not reported" means the company did not file a value under the standard tag Swoopr reads, not that the amount was zero. This page is educational and describes reported history only; it is not a forecast or a recommendation. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Who are Capital One's competitors? Companies sharing Capital One's SEC classification (SIC code 6021 (National Commercial Banks)) include JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), Wells Fargo (WFC), U.S. Bancorp (USB). Its 10-K names the competitors it considers most relevant. ### How does Capital One compare with its peers on margins? A margin comparison needs reported operating income for Capital One and its peers; where either is missing, Swoopr leaves the comparison out. ### How are these peers chosen? By the SEC Standard Industrial Classification code each company files under, within Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight company set, falling back to the two-digit major group when fewer than two companies share the exact code. Classification codes are broad, so read the peer list as a screen, not a verdict. ### How does Capital One rank among all companies in its SEC industry? Among 22 SEC filers under SIC code 6021, Capital One ranks 5 by latest revenue. ## References - [SEC EDGAR: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORP Form 10-K filed February 19, 2026](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/927628/000092762826000024/cof-20251231.htm) - [SEC EDGAR: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORP annual and quarterly filings](https://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?action=getcompany&CIK=927628&type=10-K) - [SEC: EDGAR application programming interfaces (XBRL frames and submissions data)](https://www.sec.gov/search-filings/edgar-application-programming-interfaces) ## Related Pages - [Capital One company dossier](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/capital-one/) - [Capital One financial metrics](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/capital-one/metrics/) - [Capital One financial risk indicators](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/capital-one/risks/) - [Capital One peer comparison](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/capital-one/competitors/) - [Capital One business model and revenue mix](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/capital-one/business-model/) - [Fundamental analysis guides](https://www.getswoopr.com/learn/fundamental-analysis/) **[Swoopr Editorial Team](https://www.getswoopr.com/authors/swoopr-editorial-team/)** Swoopr's editorial team produces independent investment education content reviewed for accuracy and clarity.
