PITTSBURGH, Pa. – F.N.B. Corp., along with its largest subsidiary First National Bank, has been named to the inaugural America’s High Growth Companies list from Business Insider.

The honor recognizes F.N.B.’s ability to achieve sustainable growth and maintain strong financial performance, a news release states.

“F.N.B.’s strong performance, innovation and scale enable us to deliver value for our shareholders and exceptional experiences for our clients, employees and communities,” said Vincent Delie, chairman, president and chief executive officer of F.N.B. Corp. and First National Bank. “This recognition reflects our team’s dedication to excellence and their success executing a business model that has positioned us to grow and thrive throughout a broad range of economic cycles.”

Business Insider is a global news brand known for its coverage of business, technology and innovation. Its America’s High Growth Companies list recognizes companies that demonstrate sustained growth over time without compromising financial health. The ranking evaluated 3,000 companies across four pillars: financial performance, profitability growth, investor value and stability. 

To be eligible, companies had to meet specific profitability and revenue criteria and pass a media screening review. The 500 highest-scoring companies were named to the list, which was created in partnership with the research firm Plant-A Insights Group.

Under Delie’s leadership, F.N.B. has evolved from a small rural bank to one of the 50 largest bank holding companies based in the United States by total assets, with nearly 500 percent asset growth since 2009, the year he was named president of First National Bank.
