Claim
$620.12
Correction

Amazon's 2021 revenue was about $469.82 billion, not $620.12 billion.

Full reasoning

The table labels this figure as Amazon's revenue for F.Y. 2021. Amazon's own 2021 results say otherwise: the company reported net sales of $469.8 billion in 2021 (specifically $469,822 million). That means the listed value of $620.12 for 2021 is incorrect for the stated fiscal year.

Claim
$339.85
Correction

Alphabet's 2021 revenue was $257.637 billion, not $339.85 billion.

Full reasoning

This row states Alphabet's revenue for F.Y. 2021 was $339.85 billion. Alphabet's 2021 Form 10-K reports consolidated revenues of $257.637 billion for the year ended December 31, 2021. So the value shown in the table does not match Alphabet's reported 2021 revenue.

Claim
$156.22
Correction

Meta's full-year 2021 revenue was $117.929 billion, not $156.22 billion.

Full reasoning

The table identifies $156.22 as Meta's 2021 revenue. Meta's official full-year 2021 results reported total revenue of $117.929 billion. Because the fiscal year in the row is explicitly 2021, the listed revenue figure is incorrect.

Claim
$39
Correction

Netflix's 2021 revenue was about $29.70 billion, not $39 billion.

Full reasoning

In Netflix's row, the revenue column is paired with F.Y. 2021. Netflix's 2021 Form 10-K reports total revenues of $29,697,844 thousand, i.e. about $29.7 billion, for the year ended December 31, 2021. That directly contradicts the table's figure of $39 billion.

Claim
2005
Correction

Otto Group was founded in 1949, not 2005.

Full reasoning

The Founded column for Otto Group shows 2005, but Otto Group's own company history says Werner Otto founded the business on August 17, 1949. The year 2005 appears on the company's timeline for a different event, not the founding of Otto Group.

Claim
1998
Correction

Zynga was founded in 2007, not 1998.

Full reasoning

The row lists Zynga's founding year as 1998. Zynga's own corporate history says the company was founded as a project by Mark Pincus in January 2007, and Zynga Poker launched later that same year. That makes the founding year in the table incorrect.

    Zynga was founded as a project by Mark Pincus in January of 2007 ... Zynga Poker launched on July 1, 2007.

Claim
$2.66
Correction

EPAM Systems reported about $2.29 billion in 2019 revenue, not $2.66 billion.

Full reasoning

The row labels $2.66 as EPAM Systems' revenue for 2019. EPAM's own full-year 2019 results reported annual revenues of $2.29 billion. So the revenue figure shown in the list is not correct for the stated fiscal year.

Claim
36,50
Correction

EPAM had 36,739 employees at December 31, 2019, not 36,50.

Full reasoning

The employee count in this row is malformed and incorrect. EPAM's 2019 Form 10-K says that at December 31, 2019, the company had 36,739 employees. The table's value of 36,50 does not match the reported figure.

Claim
$260.4
Correction

JD.com's 2021 revenue was about $149.3 billion, not $260.4 billion.

Full reasoning

This row lists JD.com's 2021 revenue as $260.4 billion. JD.com's official full-year 2021 results reported net revenues of RMB951.6 billion (US$149.3 billion). Because the table's revenue column is explicitly in USD billions, the listed figure is incorrect for 2021.

Claim
1999
Correction

Epic Games was founded in 1991, not 1999.

Full reasoning

The Founded column for Epic Games shows 1999, but Epic Games' official company description says it was founded in 1991 by CEO Tim Sweeney. 1999 is associated with the company's later name change to Epic Games, not its founding.

Claim
2002
Correction

Etsy was founded in 2005, not 2002.

Full reasoning

The table's Founded column lists Etsy as founded in 2002, but Etsy's investor-relations company information states that Etsy was founded in 2005 and is headquartered in Brooklyn, New York. So the founding year in this row is incorrect.

Claim
2004
Correction

GoDaddy was founded in 1997, not 2004.

Full reasoning

The table lists GoDaddy's founding year as 2004, but GoDaddy's own history page shows the company dates back to 1997. The company was originally founded in 1997 (as Jomax Technologies) and later renamed GoDaddy.
