Birdlife International: $45.6M Revenue, $38.0M Expenses

The efficiency rubric puts Birdlife International at a B grade: a composite of 73/100 that lands above the national midpoint. The grade reflects solid financial reserves alongside reasonable officer compensation and steady revenue.

Birdlife International reported $45.6M in 2023 revenue — a mid-sized nonprofit by U.S. standards. Organizations in this bracket typically operate with a small permanent staff, project-based program structures, and modest reserves. On the reserves factor, Birdlife International scores well — assets relative to annual spending sit in the range nonprofit-finance experts consider healthy (roughly three months to two years of operating expenses).

Five-year revenue trajectory is strongly positive: Birdlife International has grown materially in real terms, which usually signals successful fundraising and program expansion. Compensation for current officers and key employees runs $1.5M against $45.6M in revenue — within the band third-party charity raters typically consider reasonable for an organization of this size and complexity. This is an aggregate across all listed officers, not a single executive's salary. Birdlife International works in Environment & Animals — environmental, conservation, animal-welfare, and natural-resources programs. The sector spans large international conservation groups and small local land trusts; the financial profile varies accordingly.
