Inc. Magazine Unveils Its Annual List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies—the Inc. 5000

Facteus Ranks No. 1615 on the 2020 Inc. 5000 With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 266 Percent

NEW YORK & BEAVERTON, Ore.--()--Inc. magazine this week revealed that Portland, Ore.-based Facteus, the leading provider of actionable insights from financial data, made its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. Facteus ranked No. 1615 on the latest list, with three-year revenue growth of 266 percent.

The Inc. 5000 list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

“In these uncertain times, the insights within our financial data provide businesses, governments and investors with information they need to confidently drive their organization forward, and this ranking on the Inc. 5000 is proof of those efforts,” said Facteus CEO Randy Koch. “The actionable insights we provide are now more important than ever as consumer spending behaviors have drastically changed the last few months.”

Facteus has experienced tremendous growth this year, highlighted by a company name change (formerly ARM Insight) and the April launch of Enlightmint, a powerful tool that provides insight into business revenue drivers and the underlying consumer spending behaviors that drive them. Enlightmint is based on transactional data sourced directly from financial institutions and payments companies to a broad range of investors, analysts and business executives.

Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000. The top 500 companies are also being featured in the September issue of Inc., available on newsstands August 18.

Not only have the companies on the 2020 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists as well. The 2020 Inc. 5000 achieved an incredible three-year average growth of over 500 percent, and a median rate of 165 percent. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $209 billion in 2019, accounting for over 1 million jobs over the past three years.

“The companies on this year’s Inc. 5000 come from nearly every realm of business,” said Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “From health and software to media and hospitality, the 2020 list proves that no matter the sector, incredible growth is based on the foundations of tenacity and opportunism.”

The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring the companies on the list will be held virtually from October 23 to 27, 2020. As always, speakers will include some of the greatest innovators and business leaders of our generation.

Methodology

The 2020 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2016 and 2019. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2016. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2019. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2016 is $100,000; the minimum for 2019 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Companies on the Inc. 500 are featured in Inc.’s September issue.
