Upcoming Benchmarking
Effective with the February 2026 advance release for the fourth quarter of 2025, not seasonally adjusted quarterly services estimates and the seasonally adjusted Selected Services Total will continue to reflect the results of the 2022 Service Annual Survey. Due to the recent lapse in federal funding, quarterly services estimate revisions reflecting historical corrections, new seasonal factors, and results of the 2023 and 2024 Annual Integrated Economic Survey will be released later in 2026. We will provide the updated release date as soon as it is available.
