Average Annual Growth Rate: 25.46%

Growth: 76.39% 2022: $229,034,658

Full-time employees: 1,315 A repeat CR100 honoree among a field it mostly advises: Spencer Fane, the Kansas City-based business-law firm, grew revenue 76 percent over the period, from $229 million to $404 million. The firm has climbed Ingram’s 100 list steadily — No. 99 in 2019 to No. 76 this year — reflecting a deliberate national expansion strategy that has taken its platform well beyond its home market. 62 Community Bank Growth: 73.45% Average Annual Growth Rate: 24.48% Gross Revenue: 2025: $12,150,000 2022: $7,005,000 Full-time employees: 22 The plainest name on this year’s list belongs to one of its most efficient performers. Topeka-based Community Bank—$188 million in assets under Community Financial Corp.—grew revenue 73 percent over the stretch to $12.2 million while posting a 2.26 percent return on assets, among the strongest of any bank honored this year. Sometimes the generic name hides the standout operator. 63 Exchange Bank Growth: 71.21% Average Annual Growth Rate: 23.74% Gross Revenue: 2025: $34,723,000 2022: $20,281,000 Full-time employees: 61 From Atchison, Exchange Bank & Trust has built a northeast Kansas franchise of real scale: $631 million in assets, $543 million in deposits under Exchange Bankshares Corp. of Kansas. Revenue grew 71 percent over the stretch to $34.7 million with a 1.57 percent return on assets — the rate cycle’s gift to banks that spent decades gathering the low-cost deposits that fund it. 64 Kansas State Bank Growth: 71.11% Average Annual Growth Rate: 23.70% Gross Revenue: 2025: $9,445,000 2022: $5,520,000 Full-time employees: 33 Independence—the corporate kind—distinguishes Kansas State Bank: the Ottawa institution operates without a holding com pany, a rarity on this list. The $212 million-asset, $192 million-deposit bank grew revenue 71 percent over the stretch to $9.4 million, its conservative, deposit-heavy balance sheet built for exactly the kind of rate environment 2022 through 2025 delivered. 65 Community Bank Pleasant Hill Growth: 70.32% Average Annual Growth Rate: 23.44% Gross Revenue: 2025: $8,073,000 2022: $4,740,000 Full-time employees: 19 Cass County’s growth spillover reaches Pleasant Hill, and its community bank has captured the moment. The $143 million asset institution under Arcadia Financial Corp. grew revenue 70 percent over the stretch to $8.1 million, with fee income contributing an unusually large share for a bank its size — a diversification note that sets it apart within this year’s community bank cohort. 66 Bartlett & West Growth: 68.09% Average Annual Growth Rate: 22.70% Gross Revenue: 2025: $122,667,547 2022: $72,975,861 Full-time employees: 444 The employee-owners of Bartlett & West—nearly 100 added in 2023, and again in 2024—drive a genuine growth run. The Topeka engineering, architecture and technology firm rode major transportation work, including the $246 million I-55 cor ridor design-build south of St. Louis, acquired Lenexa-based Krudwig Structural Engineers in 2024 and expanded to Tampa in 2025. 67 Kansas City Mechanical Growth: 67.96% Average Annual Growth Rate: 22.65% Gross Revenue: 2025: $17,544,979 2022: $10,445,840 Full-time employees: 23 This full-service mechanical contracting firm headquartered in Kansas City, Kan., was established in 1983, and it specializes in heating, ventilation, air conditioning, plumbing, process piping, and complex equipment fabrication for industrial, institutional, and commercial facilities. The firm’s rapid growth is driven in large part by its certified Women Business Enterprise status. 68 First State Bank & Trust Growth: 66.35% Average Annual Growth Rate: 22.12% Gross Revenue: 2025: $30,027,000 2022: $18,050,000 Full-time employees: 83 Tonganoxie sits in the path of Leavenworth County’s growth, and First State Bank & Trust has grown with it. The $481 million asset institution under Tonganoxie Bankshares used its expanded revenue 66 to fund a loan book that repriced steadily upward through the rate cycle—community banking’s version of being in the right place at the right time. 69 Shamrock Roofing Growth: 65.39% Average Annual Growth Rate: 21.80% Gross Revenue: 2025: $52,641,696 2022: $31,828,605 Full-time employees: 57 In 2022, Shamrock’s roofing revenue was concentrated in Kansas; by 2025 it was operating in 16 markets across seven states, from Denver to St. Louis to Oklahoma City. Completed projects surged from roughly 1,900 a year to 3,643 in 2024—a record —behind 85 project managers, 26 branch managers, and a CRM-driven pipeline converting at 75 percent. 70 Security Benefit Growth: 64.46% Average Annual Growth Rate: 21.49% Gross Revenue: 2025: $11,767,000,000 2022: $7,155,000,000 Full-time employees: 571 The largest company on this year’s CR100 isn’t a construction giant or a hospital system—it’s a Topeka retirement-savings powerhouse. Security Benefit grew revenue from $7.2 billion to $11.8 billion over the period, a 64 percent gain that lands a perennial top-five member of Ingram’s 100 on the fast-growth list as well. Doug Wolff leads a firm of 571 employees, about 330 of them at th4eir headquarters in Topeka. 1st Year 1st Year 1st Year 1st Year 1st Year
