Percent Climbs Over 2,700 Spots in National Ranking of Inc. 5000's List of Fastest-Growing Private Companies in America

With continued platform growth and over $2 billion in transactions, Percent makes a major leap in national ranking.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Percent, the platform powering the private credit marketplace with over $2 billion in transaction volume, today announced its placement on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list, an annual ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. Fueled by a two-year revenue growth of 70% and ongoing product innovation, Percent moved up significantly in this year's rankings, climbing from #4047 in 2024 to #1301 in 2025.

The jump reflects Percent's continued momentum in the private credit space, underpinned by its ability to deliver technology-driven transparency, speed, and efficiency to a once opaque and inaccessible asset class. Since its inception, Percent has facilitated over $2 billion in transaction volume, with 670+ deals fully repaid, returning over $1.36 billion in principal and $102+ million in interest to investors. This level of scale and reliability is rapidly setting Percent apart as the go-to infrastructure powering the next generation of private credit.

"This year's ranking on the Inc. 5000 list is a reflection of the transformative work our team is doing to bring modern infrastructure to private credit," said Nelson Chu, Founder and CEO of Percent. "We're building a marketplace that works better for everyone, whether you're an investor seeking yield and liquidity, or a borrower in need of capital. This leap forward on the list is a signal that we're not only growing, we're building something sustainable and future-focused."

The companies on this year's list demonstrated a remarkable rate of growth. Businesses on the 2025 Inc. 5000 achieved a median three-year revenue growth rate of 219%, added over 600,000 jobs, and generated $95.1 billion in revenue.

"Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company's tenacity and clarity of vision," says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. "These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn't just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy."

This national recognition follows Percent's inclusion in the Inc. 5000 Regionals: Northeast list earlier this year, where the company ranked #85. For complete results of the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Private Companies in America, including company profiles, visit www.inc.com/inc5000.
