WALTHAM, Mass., April 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Lionbridge
Technologies (Nasdaq: LIOX), today announced the Company has been
recognized for the second consecutive year on Forbes' list of 'The
100 Most Trustworthy Companies in America.' Of the 100 ranked
companies, only 10 have appeared on this list at least twice in the
past three years, marking a significant milestone for
Lionbridge.
To create this list, GMI Ratings, now a part of MSCI ESG
Research, screened more than 5,500 publicly-traded North American
companies to identify the 100 that most "consistently demonstrated
transparent accounting practices and solid corporate
governance." The companies are then ranked according to an
"Accounting and Governance Risk" (AGR) score on a 100-point scale,
which also signifies their level of trust. This year, Lionbridge
scored a 93 out of a best possible 100 points, topping its score of
91 in 2014.
"For nearly two decades, we've provided our clients, employees,
partners and shareholders with the highest level of transparency,
integrity and quality. Our commitment to building and maintaining
trust is pervasive in each of our 28 locations worldwide and is the
reason many of the world's most prestigious global brands choose
Lionbridge as their global partner, quarter after quarter, year
after year," said Rory Cowan, CEO of
Lionbridge. "To be recognized once again by Forbes is not only an
honor, but a testament to the confidence we have instilled among
these important Lionbridge stakeholders."
According to the Forbes report, the companies that make the list
can be relied upon to accurately report financial outcomes, and are
typically financially sound, demonstrating strong stock
performance, and providing shareholders with greater levels of
transparency.
