AXA SA Revenue in 2024

AXA SA reported $119.5B in revenue for fiscal year 2024. This represents a growth of 7.5% compared to the 2023 figure of $111.2B.

What makes AXA's trajectory remarkable is not merely scale but the velocity of transformation: from a regional French mutual insurer with 1,850 employees in 1980 to a global composite insurer with 154,000 employees and a market capitalization of approximately $80 billion today. The subsequent decade under Henri de Castries brought further expansion through the acquisitions of Guardian Royal Exchange (1999), MONY Group (2004), and Winterthur (2006), before the far-reaching $15.3 billion purchase of XL Group in 2018 repositioned AXA as the global leader in property & casualty commercial lines. Today, under CEO Thomas Buberl, AXA is executing its 'Unlock the Future' strategic plan (2024-2026), targeting 6-8% underlying earnings per share CAGR, 14-16% return on equity, and over €21 billion in cumulative organic cash upstream. In FY2024, AXA reported €110.3 billion in gross written premiums and other revenues, €7.9 billion in net income, and €983 billion in assets under management. The problem is, the commercial lines business serves corporate clients and SMEs through AXA XL, a specialty and large commercial lines platform acquired in 2018 for $15.3 billion. The company targets a total payout ratio of 75% of underlying earnings per share, comprising a 60% dividend payout ratio and an additional 15% via annual share buybacks. On a constant exchange rate basis, underlying earnings grew 7% to €8.1 billion, while net income increased 11% to €7.9 billion. In US Dollar terms, AXA's 2024 revenue of €110.3 billion converts to approximately $119.5 billion at average 2024 exchange rates (€1 = $1.083). The company's market capitalization fluctuates with the Euro/Dollar exchange rate and equity market conditions, but was approximately $80 billion as of mid-2025 based on Euronext Paris trading. Similarly, the 2024 fine of KRW 2.7 billion ($1.9 million) by South Korea's Personal Information Protection Commission for data handling violations illustrates the growing regulatory scrutiny of customer data practices. The company has also faced reputational challenges in the US market, where Equitable AXA settled a $307.5 million class action lawsuit in 2023 over cost-of-insurance charges on universal life policies and paid a $50 million SEC penalty in 2022 for misleading retirement plan sales practices. The AXA XL platform, acquired in 2018 for $15.3 billion, represents a distinctive competitive moat in the global P&C commercial lines market. The company has set ambitious but achievable targets: underlying earnings per share growth of 6-8% CAGR from 2023 to 2026, underlying return on equity between 14-16%, and cumulative organic cash upstream exceeding €21 billion.
