Among Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight companies, 4 others share that classification; by latest reported revenue, TE Connectivity ranks 3 of 5. A filing classification is a starting point: a company's real competitors depend on its segments, which its 10-K describes. ## How Does TE Connectivity Compare With Its Peers? | Company | Revenue (latest FY) | Revenue growth | Operating margin | Net margin | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Arrow Electronics Inc.

Ranks run from 1 (highest) and use each company's latest fiscal year, in U.S. dollars. | Measure | TE Connectivity | Median of filers | Rank | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Revenue | $17.3 billion | $17.3 billion | 3 of 5 | | Revenue growth | 8.9% | 9.4% | 4 of 5 | | Operating margin | 18.6% | 2.7% | 1 of 5 | | Net margin | 10.7% | 1.9% | 1 of 5 | 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 TE Connectivity reported in its own SEC filings, read from the SEC's XBRL data (accession 0001104659-25-109150 for fiscal year 2025). Ratios are computed from those reported values. Figures were retrieved on October 7, 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 TE Connectivity's competitors?
