Inaugural ranking places Valor among the fastest-growing private companies in America
Update: Valor has since been named to Inc. 5000 at No. 1618 in 2024, in addition to 2023.
FORT WORTH, TX (Aug. 15, 2023) – Valor, a Fort Worth-based specialty asset management company with expertise in providing mineral management and oil and gas outsourcing, is honored to be ranked No. 572 on the 2023 Inc. 5000, an annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. For those featured in these prestigious rankings, a first for Valor, the list offers a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment – independent, entrepreneurial businesses.
“Being recognized on the 2023 Inc. 5000 list underscores Valor’s commitment to delivering on services that provide innovative solutions for the people and clients we serve,” said Joseph DeWoody, CEO of Valor. “I’m grateful to the entire team, whose dedication and exceptional efforts earned us a spot on this prestigious list. We’re proud to stand among the most successful companies in America and look forward to many years of continued growth.”
The Inc. 5000 class of 2023 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate ticked up to an astonishing 2,238 percent. Some of the best-known brands, including Facebook, Patagonia, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft and dozens of other household names, all received their first significant national recognition as honorees on the Inc. 5000 list. All combined, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 1,187,266 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
“Running a business has only gotten harder since the end of the pandemic,” says Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “To make the Inc. 5000 – with the fast growth that requires – is truly an accomplishment. Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that are building our future.”

Inc. 5000 Methodology:
Companies on the 2023 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2019 to 2022. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2019. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2022. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2019 is $100,000; the minimum for 2022 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.
