Advantage Capital has been named #30 overall among the 2026 Real Leaders Top Impact Companies, and #4 among the Top 50 Impact Investors, earning recognition alongside organizations demonstrating that profit and positive impact can scale together.

Real Leaders—the #1 global community for values-driven CEOs—annually highlights businesses that put purpose into practice. The 2026 ranking reflects a rigorous evaluation of three-year growth, 2024 revenue performance, and detailed impact application detailing how they are transforming their industries for the better.

“Real Leaders exists to celebrate the achievements of the leaders who are inspiring better business for a better world,” said Kevin Edwards, CEO of Real Leaders. “The 2026 winners demonstrate that scaling impact and revenues are not competing priorities — they are the future of great companies.”

Now in its seventh year, the Real Leaders Top Impact Companies ranking continues to set a clear benchmark for organizations that pair strong financial performance with meaningful outcomes. Advantage Capital’s inclusion underscores its ongoing focus on supporting small businesses, financing affordable housing, and expanding energy infrastructure—while delivering strong returns for investors.

These rankings were issued by Real Leaders (“RL”), an independent third party. The rankings are based on investment data from calendar year 2024 that was submitted by Advantage Capital Management Corporation (“Advantage Capital”) in 2025. Advantage Capital paid a $325 application to be considered for this recognition. Neither RL nor any of its affiliates is a current client of Advantage Capital or any of its affiliates or an investor in any private funds advised by Advantage Capital or its affiliates. Although Advantage Capital has paid an annual fee in previous years to participate in the Real Leaders Impact Collaborative and paid a separate application fee in connection with the RL Impact Awards, RL has not received any direct compensation, where in cash or non-cash form, to select Advantage Capital for these rankings. While RL and Advantage Capital have an existing relationship through Advantage Capital’s participation in events sponsored by RL that could serve as an incentive to consider Advantage Capital for the Real Leaders Impact Awards, Advantage Capital is not aware of any other material conflicts of interest arising from RL’s relationship with Advantage Capital or any of its affiliates.
