Orrick and the Death of PPP?

The firm Orrick Herrington & Sutcliffe recently announced that they are no longer publically providing their annual profit per partner numbers used in industry rankings such as those performed by the American Lawyer.

While firms’ reporting mechanisms are not major differentiators, we do applaud firms that are now starting to take a longer-term perspective of their organization than the annual profit per partner rankings. A longer-term perspective allows for more strategic planning and market innovation (which may include, but is not limited to, further investment in longer-term investments like outsourced legal services initiatives).

More details are available in an article featured in ABA Journal.
