# Thread Makes Inc. 5000 List a 3rd Time

 By [Barbara Collins](https://blog.threadhcm.com/author/threadhcm) August 15, 2019

## Inc. Magazine Unveils Its 38th Annual List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies—the Inc 5000

 

### ![Inc. 5000 - America's Fastest Growing Private Companies](https://blog.threadhcm.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/inc-5000-150x150-1.jpg?width=125&height=132&name=inc-5000-150x150-1.jpg "Inc. 5000 - America's Fastest Growing Private Companies")

> For the 3rd Time in a row, [Thread HCM Appears on the Inc. 5000, Ranking No. 4839](https://www.inc.com/profile/thread) With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 57 Percent.

 

**NEW YORK, August 14, 2019 –** *Inc.* magazine today revealed that Thread is No. 4839 on its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Microsoft, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, Pandora, Timberland, LinkedIn, Yelp, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

> "We are thrilled to be included in this prestigious class of companies for the third year in a row. Thread has seen significant change over the last few years and to see it working is exciting for our team, and a proud moment for Thread. We have a great group of people committed to making it better each day and it’s evident the strategy and their dedication is paying off"said Lori Winters, CEO.

Not only have the companies on the 2019 Inc. 5000 (which are listed online at Inc.com, with the top 500 companies featured in the September issue of *Inc.*, available on newsstands August 20) been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists. The 2019 Inc. 5000 achieved an astounding three-year average growth of 454 percent, and a median rate of 157 percent. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $237.7 billion in 2018, accounting for 1,216,308 jobs over the past three years.

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 companies on this year’s Inc. 5000 have followed so many different paths to success,” says *Inc.* editor in chief James Ledbetter. “There’s no single course you can follow or investment you can take that will guarantee this kind of spectacular growth. But what they have in common is persistence and seizing opportunities.”

The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring the companies on the list will be held October 10 to 12, 2019, at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort and Spa in Phoenix, Arizona. As always, speakers include some of the greatest innovators and business leaders of our generation.

## More about Inc. and the Inc. 5000 Methodology

The 2019 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2015 and 2018. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2015. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2018. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2015 is $100,000; the minimum for 2018 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. They represent the top tier of the Inc. 5000, which can be found at [https://www.inc.com/inc5000.](https://www.inc.com/inc5000)
