Forbes Asia's 200 Best Under A Billion 2024
World Known Group has been listed the "200 Best Under A Billion" by Forbes Asia for 2024. Despite the pressures of geopolitical tensions and inflation on some Asia-Pacific economies in 2023, strong domestic demand, increased infrastructure spending, and the recovery of global trade drove overall growth in the region. Against this backdrop, World Known’s selection is particularly impressive.
Forbes Asia rigorously selected only 200 companies from over 20,000 listed companies in the Asia-Pacific region with annual sales between $10 million and $1 billion, with only 20 companies from Taiwan making the list. The selection criteria covered multiple quantitative indicators, including the company's debt, sales, earnings per share growth, and considered the company's financial performance over both the most recent fiscal one- and three-year periods, as well as the strongest one- and five-year average return on equity. In addition to financial indicators, multiple qualitative standards were also applied, including assessments of corporate governance, accounting practices, and environmental responsibility. This selection not only affirms World Known’s operational strength but also highlights the company's outstanding performance in corporate governance, accounting practices, and environmental responsibility.
