Inc. Magazine Unveiled its Annual List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies—the Inc. 5000. Lowers Risk Group has made the list for the sixth consecutive year this year.
Purcellville, VA, August 14, 2019 – Enterprise risk management company, Lowers Risk Group, is pleased to announce that it is ranked No. 1521 on the Inc. magazine annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list, released today, 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. This is Lowers Risk Group’s sixth consecutive year on the list.
Mark Lowers, President and CEO of Lowers Risk Group, remarks, “We are proud to once again appear alongside an incredible group of companies on the 2019 list. The shared vision and commitment of the entire Lowers Risk Group team has made our continued growth possible.”
According to Inc. magazine, not only have the companies on the 2019 Inc. 5000 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.
Lowers Risk Group has appeared on the list each year since 2014, and in 2016 it earned recognition among the top performers by making the Inc. 500 list. The company is based in Purcellville, Virginia, just outside the nation’s capital, and offers enterprise risk management solutions to protect people, brands, and profits from avoidable loss and harm.
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.”

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.
