OKLAHOMA CITY (OBV) – Oklahoma’s state treasurer says Oklahoma experienced a slowdown in revenue growth at the end of 2022, a year that otherwise achieved a record high in gross receipts.
Twelve-month gross receipts reached $17.4 billion, a new all-time high for the Sooner State, with revenues expanding almost 15 percent compared to last year, according to State Treasurer Randy McDaniel.
But the growth rate moderated in December with monthly collections growing only 5.7 percent compared to a year ago.
“The performance of Oklahoma’s economy has been impressive this year,” McDaniel said. “Robust consumer demand coupled with an expanding energy sector led to record revenues for the year. With that said, the rate of growth has started to taper off.”
Combined sales and use taxes were up by five percent this December compared to December 2021. Total individual and corporate income tax receipts rose 2.3 percent, but motor vehicle collections declined 6.3 percent, according to a news release from McDaniel’s office.
The gross production tax on oil and natural gas continued ascending, finishing 26.9 percent higher than in December 2021.
Collections for 2022 are over $2.2 billion above 2021 collections. The top three major revenue streams showed expansion, ranging from 70.9 percent in gross production receipts to 9.6 percent in sales and use taxes, according to the State Treasurer’s Office.
