What the numbers say
In 2025, Comoros' net primary income (net income from abroad) (current US$) rose US$525,710 on 2024 (from US$9.04 million to US$9.57 million).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +US$286,641 and a typical year strayed about US$1.33 million from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.2 standard deviations above that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was US$4.29 million in 2014 and the biggest yearly fall was US$3.34 million in 2008. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2016 to 2025 the straight-line trend is upward, about US$444,438 a year. A straight line explains 80% of the movement over 10 observed years.

A straight-line projection, tested first
Extending that straight line gives about US$9.77 million for 2028. We show this only because the same method, fitted on earlier years, predicted 2023 to 2025 better than "no change" would have: its average miss was US$376,975, against US$2.06 million for assuming no change. Treat it as a continuation of the recent pattern, not a forecast of events: it cannot see a recession, a policy change or a revision to the data.

What this measures
Net primary income includes the net labor income and net property and entrepreneurial income components of the SNA. Labor income covers compensation of employees paid to nonresident workers. Property and entrepreneurial income covers investment income from the ownership of foreign financial claims (interest, dividends, rent, etc.) and nonfinancial property income (patents, copyrights, etc.). This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This indicator is expressed in United States dollars.
