In this recently released report, our DC Corporate and Securities team have reviewed the most recent proxy statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the approximately 100 largest, by 2023 annual revenue, public companies in the DC area, and assessed high-level trends regarding the local public company market, as well as how the DC market aligns and contrasts with the trends and data of public companies nationally as well as with the 2023 DC 100 data.
In this second annual report, we analyze local public company metrics against the Fortune 500, S&P 500, Russell 3000, and other national surveys as available. This report provides helpful benchmarking data regarding how the DC-area public company market, while robust in number, differs at least in some respects from governance and disclosure perspectives compared to other markets, including from the national public company statistics.
