JOYY tops a US-listed world at 98.78% net margin; the 50th spot cuts off at 37.43%
Asked:
“what are the top 50 public companies by net margin in the world? show them as a list and as a map”
All 50 companies are ranked by FY2025 annual-filing net margin (net income ÷ revenue, in percent). This is a US-exchange proxy for “the world”: 49 of the 50 margin figures come from a single Stock Titan ranking of companies trading on NYSE, Nasdaq, or AMEX, and one from TGMCharts — the margin ranking is effectively single-sourced. Headquarters locations were researched separately across 20 independent hosts; five rows with suspected ticker or name collisions have their location left blank.
Where the 50 highest-margin US-listed companies are headquartered
Colour = number of top-50 headquarters per country, light to dark. 45 of 50 companies mapped; 5 omitted for unverified locations. Hover a shaded country for its companies.
The United States hosts 30 of the 45 mapped headquarters; Canada is next with 4 (Wheaton, Franco-Nevada, Brookfield, Alamos Gold), then Bermuda with 3 — stocktitan.net
The three leaders — JOYY at 98.78%, BlackRock Multi-Sector Income Trust at 87.98%, and Simon Property Group at 84.28% — are a Chinese internet firm, a closed-end trust, and a REIT: margins this high often reflect one-off gains or investment-vehicle accounting rather than durable operations — tgmcharts.com
Familiar operating giants sit mid-list: NVIDIA ranks 14th at 55.60%, Visa 19th at 50.15%, Mastercard 27th, TSMC 32nd, Microsoft 38th — stocktitan.net
Locations for Comfort Systems USA, Futu, Royal Gold, Boyd Gaming, and Slide Insurance are left blank: their researched addresses appear to be ticker or name collisions, not the exact issuer — lei-lookup.com

Data: 50 US-exchange-listed companies (NYSE, Nasdaq, AMEX) ranked by FY2025 annual-filing net margin (net income ÷ revenue). Margin values are single-sourced: 49 rows from one Stock Titan page, 1 from TGMCharts. Headquarters city and country researched separately across 20 independent hosts; 5 companies with suspected ticker/name collisions shown without location and excluded from the map. Net margin can be inflated by one-time gains; trusts, REITs, insurers, banks, ADRs and operating companies are mixed and not always economically comparable. No reliable coordinates existed for most headquarters, so the map is country-level.
