ScanSource Named to FORTUNE Magazine's 2019 List of ‘World’s Most Admired Companies’

GREENVILLE, S.C.-- January 22, 2019--ScanSource, Inc., (NASDAQ: SCSC), a leading global provider of technology products and solutions, has been named to  FORTUNE magazine's 2019 List of World’s Most Admired Companies. The annual survey, which is given to thousands of senior executives, directors and financial analysts from more than 600 global companies, identifies the organizations with the strongest reputations within their industries and across industries. “ScanSource is honored to have once again been named to  FORTUNE’sWorld’s Most Admired Companies list, a prestigious recognition which represents the most respected companies in business,” said Mike Baur, CEO, ScanSource, Inc. “ScanSource always strives to provide the best technology solutions and services to our partners, and beyond that, it is our mission to be a socially responsible company that gives back to the communities where we operate. This recognition reinforces the dedication we have to our partners, as well as our employees and communities across the globe.” FORTUNE began with a universe of about 1,500 candidates: the 1,000 largest U.S. companies ranked by revenue, along with non-U.S. companies in  FORTUNE’s Global 500 database that have revenues of $10 billion or more.  FORTUNE then winnowed the assortment to the highest-revenue companies in each industry, a total of 680 in 30 countries. The top-rated companies were picked from that pool of 680; the executives who voted work at the companies in that group. To determine the best-regarded companies in 52 industries, Korn Ferry,  FORTUNE’s partner in this survey, asked executives, directors, and analysts to rate enterprises in their own industry on nine criteria, from investment value and quality of management and products to social responsibility and ability to attract talent. A company’s score must rank in the top half of its industry survey to be listed. The 2019 World’s Most Admired Companies list can be found on the  FORTUNE  website.
