Calculation of growth rates
The calculation of company growth rates is based on the revenue figures submitted by the companies in the respective national currency. For better comparability in the ranking the revenue figures were concerned into US dollars. The average rate for the financial year indicated by the company was used for this purpose.
The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) was calculated as follows:

- Criteria
- Evaluation
- Quality Assurance
Application Phase
Application Phase
The project was advertised online and in print, allowing all eligible companies to register via the websites created by Statista and the Financial Times. In addition, through research in company databases and other public sources Statista has identified thousands of companies in the Americas as potential candidates for the ranking. These companies were invited to participate in the competition by post and email.
The application phase ran from 1st September 2022 to 15th January 2023. The submitted revenue figures had to be certified by the CFO, CEO or a member of the Executive Committee of the company.
Following the application phase Statista examined the officially stated revenue data of more than 7,000 public companies in the Americas. In the next step high-profile companies that met the aforementioned criteria were added to the list (138 in total). The data has been collected via desk research in official sources like publicly available earning presentations, investor relations websites or annual reports.
The ranking of the The Americas’ Fastest Growing Companies 2023 was created through a complex procedure. Although the search was very extensive, the ranking does not claim to be complete, as some companies did not want to make their figures public or did not participate for other reasons.
