Methodology
Application Phase
The project was advertised online and in print, allowing all eligible companies to register via the websites created by Statista and The Star. In addition, through research in company databases and other public sources Statista has identified hundreds of companies in Malaysia as potential candidates for the growth ranking. These companies were invited to participate in the competition by email, Linkedin and telephone.
The application phase ran from 21st October 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.
Criteria
- Revenue of at least RM400,000 generated in 2018
- Revenue of at least RM4.0 million generated in 2021
- The company is independent (the applying company is not a subsidiary or branch office of another company)
- The company is headquartered in Malaysia
- The revenue growth between 2018 and 2021 was primarily organic (i.e. “internally” stimulated)
Evaluation
The list ranks entrants from Malaysia by their compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in revenue between 2018 and 2021. The fiscal years that predominantly falls into 2018 and 2021 were used for this calculation.
Quality Assurance
All data reported by the companies was processed and checked by Statista. Missing data entries (employee numbers, address data, etc.) were researched in detail. Companies that did not fulfill the criteria for inclusion in the ranking were deleted.
