NEW YORK, August 13, 2012 — Inc. magazine released the 2012 Inc. 5000 list and for the fourth consecutive year Amyx, Inc. has been named to the list of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. Based upon our 2012 revenue to date, we expect to make it again the next time the list is compiled. The list represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy—America’s independent-minded entrepreneurs. As an Inc. 5000 honoree, Amyx joins Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Jamba Juice, Timberland, Clif Barr, Pandora, Patagonia, Oracle and other notable alumni.
In a challenging economy for the last 3 years, companies continue to be successful and are a testimony to a company’s creativity, resilience and tenacity. To be a part of the 2012 list is truly a notable achievement.
Amyx is a privately held, small business federal contractor whose staff professionals deliver the highest level of acquisition and project management, systems engineering, business process transformation, and system integration and implementation solutions. All Amyx team members have superior technical skills, expert knowledge in multiple disciplines, and a strong belief that service to the government can make a difference. In addition to being named to the Inc 5000 list, Amyx was also named as one of Top 500 Small Businesses in the U.S., Top 100 Small Businesses in the Commonwealth of Virginia in 2008, 2010, 2011 and 2012.

Methodology
The 2012 Inc. 500 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2008 to 2011. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2008. Additionally, they had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2011. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2008 is $100,000; the minimum for 2011 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 www.inc.com/500.
