American Express Company
Statements
Segments
US companies must disclose in their mandatory reports how revenue breaks down across business segments, regions and product lines. We read that breakdown for you straight from the annual and quarterly reports (10-K and 10-Q) of American Express Company (AXP). It shows which part of the business is growing — and which one is holding it back.

Large figure: segment revenue. Below it the share of revenue in that period and the change against the prior year.
Operating metrics
Operating metrics are the figures a company uses to measure its own business — customer counts, stores, deliveries or the churn rate. None of them appear in the financial statements, and they often explain earlier than revenue does why revenue is moving.
| Metric | Q2 2025 | Q3 2025 | Q1 2026 | Q2 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Average proprietary basic Card Member spending | $6.4K | $6.4K | $6.4K | $6.8K +6.1% |
| Average fee per card | $117 | $119 | $127 | $131 +12.0% |
| Membership Rewards Ultimate Redemption Rate | 96.0% | 96.0% | 97.0% | 96.0% +0.0% |
| Net write-off rate — principal, interest and fees | 2.2% | 2.2% | 2.3% | 2.2% +0.0% |
| 30+ days past due as a % of total | 1.3% | 1.3% | 1.3% | 1.2% -7.7% |
These metrics are not part of the financial statements; they sit in the narrative text of the filings. We read them out of the SEC filings using artificial intelligence and check every single figure against the original passage in the report; anything that is not found there verbatim is discarded.

Segment and region names are the ones the company itself uses and are shown as reported. Change and share refer to revenue.
