Within each user group, the companies are ranked by revenue generated by the group on the global level, regional level and five-year Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) and presented in separate league tables.  Only companies tracked by B-T are included, consequently select product groups may be populated by fewer than 10 companies.  Figures generally include revenue from relevant acquisitions/divestitures.
