Rockwell Collins is ranked 24th on BusinessWeek magazine’s list of the 50 best performing companies in the United States – the BW50. This is Rockwell Collins’ first appearance on the annual list.
The companies in the BW50 represent BusinessWeek’s choices as the “best in class” from each of the 10 sectors that make up the S&P 500. To select this year’s top performers, BusinessWeek used a proprietary screen that was refined this year to emphasize two measures how well each company’s management has been using the capital at its disposal and sales growth.
Only the best performers from each sector were chosen to ensure that the BW50 was rewarding true management excellence. BusinessWeek’s editors and reporters then reviewed each company on the list, making a limited number of changes where necessary.
The 11th annual BW50 is featured in the March 26 issue of BusinessWeek.
