DETROIT, Aug. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- CFOx announced today that it has been ranked No. 574 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, the annual ranking of America's fastest-growing private companies, marking the second consecutive year the company has earned a place on the list. The recognition reflects the firm's 613% revenue growth over the past three years. CFOx also ranked No. 9 in Michigan, No. 46 in the Financial Services category, and No. 4 among Detroit-based companies.
The list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation's most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, recognizing companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy. The recognition places CFOx among the top-performing private companies in the country and reflects the firm's rapid expansion since its founding in 2020. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle, and Patagonia.
"Being recognized on the Inc. 5000 for a second consecutive year is a meaningful milestone for our firm," shares Michael DeSantis, Co-Founder of CFOx. "What makes this recognition especially rewarding is that it reflects the trust our clients place in us and the commitment our team brings to every engagement. We started CFOx with a vision of building a different kind of advisory firm, one that combines technical expertise with a practical, hands-on approach. This achievement is a testament to the incredible people who have helped us turn that vision into reality."

"Every company on the Inc. 5000 has a story of perseverance, smart decision making, and a refusal to sit still," says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. "Their growth reflects more than strong financial performance–it reflects creativity, resilience, and the customer focus required to build companies that make a lasting impact. We congratulate all honorees on this significant achievement."
