Thomson Reuters (symbol: TRI) primarily sells its services and products to other companies. Its major customers are typically organizations within the professional sectors it serves globally. Due to the broad and global nature of its clientele, Thomson Reuters generally does not disclose specific major customer companies. Instead, its customer base consists of a vast number of firms and departments across key industries.

Here are the primary categories of its business-to-business (B2B) customers:

• Legal Professionals and Firms: This category includes law firms of all sizes (from solo practitioners to large multinational firms), corporate legal departments within major companies, and government legal and judicial bodies. Examples of the types of organizations that are customers include the "Am Law 100" firms. As most major law firms are private partnerships, specific public company symbols for these direct customers cannot be provided.
• Tax & Accounting Professionals and Firms: This segment comprises public accounting firms (including the "Big Four" and regional firms), corporate tax and accounting departments within large enterprises, and government tax authorities. Similar to legal firms, most major accounting firms are private, so specific public company symbols for these direct customers cannot be listed.
• Media Organizations: Reuters News Agency, a division of Thomson Reuters, licenses its news content, data, and imagery to other news agencies, newspapers, broadcasters, and digital publishers worldwide. Examples of public companies that are likely customers for Reuters content include:
  • News Corporation (symbol: NWS, NWSA)
  • The New York Times Company (symbol: NYT)
• Corporations (General Business, Compliance, and Risk): Thomson Reuters provides various solutions, including tax, regulatory intelligence, and risk management, to large corporations across diverse industries. While specific public companies that are major customers are not disclosed, this category encompasses a wide array of global enterprises.

The rapid emergence and adoption of advanced generative artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLMs) pose a clear threat across Thomson Reuters' core professional markets.

While Thomson Reuters is actively investing in AI and integrating it into its offerings (e.g., acquiring Casetext), numerous specialized AI startups are developing and deploying tools that can perform tasks traditionally served by TR's products with potentially greater efficiency, accuracy, and lower cost. For instance:

• In the **Legal Professionals** segment, companies are creating AI-powered legal research platforms that can summarize complex cases, draft legal documents, and answer nuanced legal questions in natural language, potentially eroding the value proposition of traditional research platforms like Westlaw.
• In the **Tax & Accounting Professionals** segment, AI and automation startups are developing solutions to streamline data entry, reconciliation, tax preparation, and audit processes, challenging the traditional software suites offered by TR.
• In **Reuters News** and other information services, generative AI could potentially synthesize vast amounts of data to create news summaries, financial reports, or industry analyses, potentially impacting the demand for traditional human-curated news and data services.

This threat is not hypothetical; these AI-native companies are actively attracting investment, developing commercial products, and gaining traction with professional users, much like how Netflix began to chip away at Blockbuster's market share with a fundamentally different content delivery model, or how specialized apps emerged to challenge established software solutions.

1. AI-Driven Innovation and New Product Launches: Thomson Reuters is heavily investing in artificial intelligence, with over $200 million allocated for AI initiatives in both 2024 and 2025-2026. This focus is leading to the development and launch of new AI-enabled products and services, such as CoCounsel Legal, Westlaw Advantage, and AI solutions for tax, audit, and accounting, which are directly contributing to organic revenue growth, particularly in the Legal Professionals segment.
2. Growth in "Big 3" Segments: The company's "Big 3" segments—Legal Professionals, Corporates, and Tax & Accounting Professionals—are consistently identified as primary drivers of organic revenue growth. These segments collectively comprise a significant portion of total revenues and have demonstrated strong performance, with expectations for continued robust growth.
3. Expansion of Recurring Revenues: A substantial portion of Thomson Reuters' total revenue, ranging from 84% to 89% in its key segments, comes from recurring sources.

4. Strategic Acquisitions: Acquisitions are playing a role in boosting revenue growth. Recent strategic acquisitions, such as Pagero (impacting the Corporates segment) and SafeSend (enhancing tax automation capabilities within the Tax & Accounting Professionals segment), have contributed positively to reported revenues and are expected to continue supporting growth.
5. International Business Expansion: Thomson Reuters is experiencing organic growth across its international businesses within the Legal Professionals, Corporates, and Tax & Accounting Professionals segments. This geographic expansion contributes to the overall revenue growth by tapping into new markets and increasing market penetration outside its primary regions.
