Peers are every company that BQ-MICS, our own multi-industry classification system, places in the same industry group as Icon Plc.

Tap the info icon beside any ticker to read it.
It marks a secondary match: the company operates a real business in this industry group, but it is not its largest. Tick "Primary business only" above the table to compare against pure plays alone.
