Abstract
Collectively, the Top 10 US accounting firms grew revenue 8% in 2014 -- the same revenue growth that the Top 10 firms posted in 2013. But, different firms were the top performers. BDO USA and KPMG leveraged strategic acquisition campaigns to outpace their peers in 2014, according to the results of the Public Accounting Report 2015 Top 10 US Accounting Firms Survey. In 2013, EY and Crowe Horwath were top performers among Big Four and non-Big Four firms, respectively. BDO's revenue was up 22% for the FYE June 2014, the top revenue growth rate among the Top 10 firms. KPMG increased revenue by 11.9% to $6.87 billion, the top growth rate among the Big Four in FY14. The firm benefited, in the last quarter of its FYE September, from the July 1 acquisition of Rothstein Kass, based in Roseland, NJ, which had FY13 net revenue of $202 million.
