To use this template in an article, copy the template below, then paste the template into an article.

All parameters are optional&nbsp;– those you do not populate with data will not show up in the infobox when the article is saved.

You must remove both the <code><nowiki><!--</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>--></nowiki></code> characters that surround certain entries in order for the data you enter to appear in the published article.

== Parameters ==
; name : The full, legal name of the company, correctly reproducing punctuation and abbreviations or lack thereof. The full legal name of the company may be different from the common name used for the article title.

; logo : The company's current, primary wordmark or logo. Use the logo of the entity that is the subject of the article; the logo used may be different from the logo used on consumer products, particularly if the article is about a parent company or holding company.
:For companies that use both a wordmark and a logo, upload a file that shows the two in combination if the combined form serves as the company's primary identity mark.
:For a wordmark example, see [[Google]]; for a logo example, see [[Apple Inc.]]; for a combined logo and wordmark example see [[Altria]].
:Upload a wordmark/logo graphic using the [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Upload&uselang=en-nonfree-logo&wpUploadDescription={{logo%20fur%0A%3C!--%20REQUIRED%20--%3E%0A+|Article+++++++++++=+%0A+|Use+++++++++++++++=+Org%0A%3C!--%20HIGHLY%20RECOMMENDED%20--%3E%0A+|Source++++++++++++=+%0A%3C!--%20ADDITIONAL%20INFORMATION%20--%3E%0A+|Used%20for++++++++++=+%0A+|Owner+++++++++++++=+%0A+|Website+++++++++++=+%0A+|History+++++++++++=+%0A+|Commentary++++++++=+%0A%3C!--%20OVERRIDE%20FIELDS%20--%3E%0A+|Description+++++++=+%0A+|Portion+++++++++++=+%0A+|Low_resolution++++=+%0A+|Purpose+++++++++++=+%0A+|Replaceability++++=+%0A+|other_information+=+%0A}} organization logo upload form].
:'''''Note: Uploading trademarked corporate logos by other means or uploading corporate logos to Wikimedia Commons is likely to result in deletion of the logo.'''''

[[MOS:OVERLINK|Wiki-link]] where appropriate, and include the ownership percentage and a reference.

; num_employees : Total number of people employed by the company in the most recent year and the year prior, with the applicable years in parentheses. To separate thousands (e.g. 12,200; 5,200) please use a comma (,) instead of a full stop (.) per [[MOS:NUM]].

:Example (for [[YouTube]]):

; divisions : The primary functional or operational [[Division (business)|business divisions]] of a company, listed alphabetically. These divisions align with the internal organizational structure of the company and may or may not align with the company's legally incorporated subsidiaries.

If it needs to be hidden for some reason like it is hosting malicious activity, place the word "hide" without the quotes or the template in this field to ensure that no website shows up.
:Example:
:: {{Unbulleted list|<nowiki>{{URL|caterpillar.com}}</nowiki>}}

; footnotes : Use to list citations that validate the data in the infobox or to note information about the terms, names and figures used.

=== Financial results parameters ===
Financial indicators available:
<pre>
| revenue =
| revenue_year =
| operating_income =
| income_year =
| net_income = <!-- or |profit= -->
| income_year = <!-- or |profit_year= -->
| aum =
| assets =
| assets_year =
| equity =
| equity_year =
</pre>

Wikilink the first occurrence of the currency unit. This is usually in the {{para|revenue}} parameter.

Each parameter entry should include three elements: an indicator icon, the results of the most recent fiscal year and the results of the previous fiscal year.

:<br />Example: <code><nowiki>{{Unbulleted list|{{Increase}} US$128,064,032 (2011)|US$111,586,447 (2010)}}</nowiki></code>

=== Indicator icons ===
You may include an indicator icon to indicate the change compared to the previous fiscal year; to avoid confusion, place the indicator before the number. Please note that this is intended to depict the ''direction'' of change compared to the previous year, not the actual numerical change in value.

: {{Increase}} {{tlx|Increase}}, {{Steady}} {{tlx|Steady}}, or {{Decrease}} {{tlx|Decrease}}

: Examples:
::<code><nowiki>{{Unbulleted list|{{Increase}} US$128,064,032 (2011)|US$111,586,447 (2010)}}</nowiki></code>
::<code><nowiki>{{Unbulleted list|{{Steady}} US$128,000,000 (2011)|US$128,000,000 (2010)}}</nowiki></code>
::<code><nowiki>{{Unbulleted list|{{Decrease}} US$111,586,447 (2011)|US$128,064,032 (2010)}}</nowiki></code>

: Which display as:
::{{Unbulleted list|{{Increase}} US$128,064,032 (2011)|US$111,586,447 (2010)}}
::{{Unbulleted list|{{Steady}} US$128,000,000 (2011)|US$128,000,000 (2010)}}
::{{Unbulleted list|{{Decrease}} US$111,586,447 (2011)|US$128,064,032 (2010)}}

=== Consistent notation ===
There are different ways to record financial results that are in the millions or [[1,000,000,000|billions]] of dollars. Pick one and use it consistently in all parameters. If using billions, always wikilink the first occurrence as <code><nowiki>[[1,000,000,000|billions]]</nowiki></code>, since [[Long-scale number|"billion" has more than one meaning]]. Use <code>&amp;nbsp;</code> to prevent wrapping between elements of the numbers, per [[MOS:NUM]].

Do not express results as a decimal such as <code><nowiki>{{Increase}} US$.963&amp;nbsp;billion (2010)</nowiki></code>. Instead choose a notation that will allow you to express all results for the period in whole numbers.

In this example use <code><nowiki>{{Increase}} US$963&amp;nbsp;million (2010)</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>{{Increase}} US$963,000,000 (2010)</nowiki></code> and apply your choice to all the financial results consistently.
