$81.3 billion in combined revenue across 49 filers tells you exactly what kind of industry this is. Our directory tracks 2,554 Auto Components companies in the United States, ranked by disclosed equity funding and recent funding momentum, and the numbers here are earned revenue, not pitch-deck projections.

Median revenue sits at $394M, growing at a quiet 3% YoY. But the outsized earners break from that calm entirely. Cummins pulled $8.4B in revenue at that same 3% clip, and its $654M net income runs 39x the sector median. BorgWarner's $242M net income lands at 14x. International Business Machines Corp, the biggest filer in the set, posted $15.9B at +9% YoY with $1.2B in net income, 72x what a typical filer earns. Divergent leads funding at $578M raised. So when you're sizing up which players actually matter here, I'd weight the revenue pool over the headline round sizes. Trade headwinds are real too, as new import duty pressures on cross-border component flows show. And as shown in 2017 research, supply chain configuration shapes competitive outcomes in ways funding alone can't fix.
