Fortune screened companies based on size, liquidity, financial metrics and growth criteria and then ranked them by revenue growth rate, EPS growth rate and three-year annualized return for the period ended June 28, 2013. Revenue and EPS growth rates were computed using a trailing four quarter log linear least square regression fit.
