*This is the GPR estimate published by the Legislative Fiscal Bureau (LFB) on May 15, 2025.

** Excise taxes also include the Operator’s Permit Fees, which totaled $47K in FY25.

General purpose revenues (GPR) increased 4.8% in fiscal year 2025 (FY25) to $22,362.6 million. This is 0.4% more than the Legislative Fiscal Bureau’s May 15, 2025 estimate of $22,274.3 million.

These are unaudited figures subject to final review by the State Controller’s Office prior to the publication of the Department of Administration’s Annual Fiscal Report to be released October 15, 2025. Additionally, the Legislative Audit Bureau performs an audit of the State’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report which is published in December of each year.

These collections do not offer guidance on the budget balance for FY25. Other general purpose revenues and the final general purpose revenue expenditures will have substantial bearing on the final budget balance.
