A total of the Global Top 100 brands were a part of the leaderboards, with the valuation of all these companies coming to an impressive $107 trillion. Out of multiple firms, Apple not only obtained the highest accolade but was the only one out of the 100 to cross the $1 trillion barrier.<\/p>\n<h2>New report gives Apple a valuation of $1.29 trillion, while Google, the second most valuable company, did not even cross the $1 trillion ceiling<\/h2>\n<p>There is no straightforward calculation provided as to how Kantar comes up with these values, but according to <a href=\"https:\/\/appleinsider.com\/articles\/25\/05\/15\/apple-tops-global-brand-rankings-again----by-a-giant-margin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AppleInsider<\/a>, the Cupertino giant\u2019s total value makes up 12 percent of the total, at $1.29 trillion. Unsurprisingly, the top five companies all hail from the technology category, with Google coming in at second place with a brand value of $944.1 billion. Coming in at number three is Microsoft, worth $884.8 billion, followed by Amazon at $866.1 billion, and in fifth place, we have NVIDIA.<\/p>\n<p>What is interesting about these results is that NVIDIA is currently going through the time of its life, racking up earnings like there is no tomorrow thanks to the raging AI boom. Even then, Kantar\u2019s estimates only give the GPU manufacturer a value of $509.4 billion. Kantar states that it employs a three-step process that injects the financial value and brand contribution to determine a company\u2019s brand value.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-lightbox\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.wccftech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Most-valuable-brands-by-Kantar-2025.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-larger wp-image-1593677\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.wccftech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Most-valuable-brands-by-Kantar-2025-1456x819.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1456\" height=\"819\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.wccftech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Most-valuable-brands-by-Kantar-2025-1456x819.jpg 1456w, https:\/\/cdn.wccftech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Most-valuable-brands-by-Kantar-2025-564x317.jpg 564w, https:\/\/cdn.wccftech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Most-valuable-brands-by-Kantar-2025-728x410.jpg 728w, https:\/\/cdn.wccftech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Most-valuable-brands-by-Kantar-2025.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1456px) 100vw, 1456px\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>The earnings from tangible assets are removed from the rankings, and intangible elements such as software licenses, patents and Apple\u2019s brand value are taken into consideration.
