METHODOLOGY
The FT Americas’ Fastest Growing Companies 2020 is a list of the top 500 companies in the Americas that have achieved the highest growth in revenues between 2015 and 2018. To be included in the list of the Americas’ fastest-growing companies, a company had to meet the following criteria: revenue of at least $100,000 generated in 2015 (or currency value equivalent according to the average of the actual fiscal year); revenue of at least $1.5m generated in 2018 (or currency value equivalent according to the average of the actual fiscal year); the company is independent (the company is not a subsidiary or branch office of any kind); the revenue growth between 2015 and 2018 was primarily organic (i.e. “internally” stimulated); and the company is headquartered in one of 20 American countries. Companies from these countries were eligible to participate: Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, the US, Uruguay, and Venezuela. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were converted into US dollars for better comparability. The average exchange rate for the financial year was used for this purpose. The minimum CAGR required to be included in the 2020 ranking was 18.2%.
