University Of Puget Sound: $157.2M Revenue, $165.1M Expenses

University Of Puget Sound pulls a D on the efficiency rubric. The composite of 44/100 reflects below-median performance on the bundle of factors — typically driven by thin operating reserves, volatile revenue, or outsized officer compensation relative to organizational size.

Annual revenue at University Of Puget Sound runs $157.2M (2023), placing it among the larger U.S. nonprofits in the IRS Form 990 dataset. Reserves are the limiting factor: University Of Puget Sound carries relatively few months of operating expenses on its balance sheet, which can leave an organization exposed if a major funding source pauses.

Five-year revenue trend is mildly negative: a modest decline that could reflect grant-cycle timing, donor turnover, or program wind-down. Worth checking against the program-spending pattern to see whether the decline is structural. Compensation for current officers and key employees runs $3.7M against $157.2M 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. In the Education category, University Of Puget Sound sits alongside universities, K-12 systems, scholarship funds, and education-research organizations. Education-sector nonprofits often hold large endowments, which affects how the reserves-and-revenue figures should be read.
