What JFrog does

US/Israeli software company making a platform (Artifactory) that manages and secures software packages through the DevOps pipeline.

Customers pay subscriptions that rise with how much software they store and move through the platform, so revenue grows as existing customers build more, often in the cloud. Plans range from self-managed licences to a JFrog-hosted cloud service, with the cloud growing in importance. Much of its research and development is in Israel.

Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal).
