Where sources disagree
JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Both facts report JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s revenue for the same fiscal period (FY 2025) with the same observation date (2025-12-31), but with different values: $182.447 billion vs. $185 billion. The ~1.4% difference ($2.553 billion) is too large to be explained by rounding alone and represents conflicting data for the identical time period.
