ESN, a Hispanic-owned company founded in 1995 by retired Navy Cmdr. Raymond F. Lopez, Jr., ranked 96th on the list—with an astounding five-year sales growth of 49%. HispanicBusiness.com noted that ESN had a compound annual rate of 10.44%, jumping from revenues of $25.8 million in 2009 to $38.3 million in 2013.

Said Mr. Lopez, ESN's President and CEO, "Our efforts to increase our services from Navy-centric offerings to IT solutions have helped ESN expand its customer base to include the Air Force, Veterans Affairs and other federal agencies. Through those changes, we have continued our commitment on providing cost-effective, on-time solutions to our customers."

For years, ESN had ranked among the top 500 Hispanic-owned companies in the U.S. Because of the Great Recession, Hispanic Business whittled the 30-year-old list down to the Top 100 earners.

Although ESN didn't make the list of 100-largest Hispanic-owned companies, ESN ranked on HispanicBusiness.com's list of the fastest-growing 100 companies during the last five-year period.

"Despite the decline in company revenues in the last few years, we at ESN have focused on using the opportunities presented by the Great Recession to accelerate our growth, as evidenced in the latest ranking in the Top 100," said Mr. Lopez.

He added: "I look for improvement in the Federal space and to maintain what we have in the Department of Defense. Our new concentration will be on workforce development and to realign our market offerings."

The company has about 250 employees in the U.S. and overseas.
