EY Didn’t Do Too Bad Last Year

Shortly after Deloitte released their 2026 revenue numbers on September 24, EY had some numbers of their own, announcing $57 billion in global revenue last week. Notably, they edged out Deloitte in growth and in a minute, you’ll see why.

Drilling down by service line we get the following. Big ups to EY for putting this table right in the press release.

If you don’t know, EY Parthenon is strategy and transactions. Clearly they were strategying their butts off in fiscal ’26.

AI really carried the team here:

In FY26, sales from AI services grew by 49%, as organizations increasingly moved AI projects beyond experimentation toward enterprise-wide transformation.

While we’re here let’s talk about people and how many of them were at the firm by June 30, 2026:
