Just in time for the PIF (see yesterday's post on exporting), Fortune magazine has released its latest list of best and worst and richest companies, etc, and it turns out that only one Philadelphia-area company made the magazine's newest list of the 100 fastest-growing public companies. Sure, NutriSystem Inc. (NASDAQ:NTRI) did come in No. 1 with a three-year EPS growth of 433 percent. (Oh, in the spirit of disclosure: NTRI's chief executive officer, Michael Hagan, is a co-owner of The Inquirer, and Inquirer chief Brian Tierney is on NutriSystem's board.) Still, it was not a great showing overall for the country's fifth-biggest metro area. On the other hand, this region did fare better among private companies listed by Inc. magazine last week. So much for lists.
