General Revenue Fund collections in March came in above expectations, continuing a steady fiscal year performance despite a year-over-year dip for the month.
The Office of Management and Enterprise Services reported that March GRF collections totaled $634.2 million, exceeding the monthly estimate by $18.7 million, or 3 percent. However, that total was $26.9 million, or 4.1 percent, below March 2025 collections.
For the fiscal year, collections remain ahead of projections. GRF totals through the first nine months of fiscal year 2026 reached $6.1 billion, which is $315.1 million, or 5.5 percent, above the year-to-date estimate and $35.5 million, or 0.6 percent, higher than the same period last year.
“March collections exceeded estimates in every major category,” said Mark Wood, director of OMES. “Notably, sales tax outperformed last March by 11.8%. As we enter the final quarter of the fiscal year, we anticipate continued stability in both GRF collections and Oklahoma’s economy.”
The latest figures reflect consistent revenue performance as the state moves into the final quarter of the fiscal year. Collections continue to outpace official estimates overall.
