This expression is often used to emphasize statements, reasons, or causes.

Being a combination of the noun (ほか) 'other' and the negated form of the う-Verb なる 'to become'. This phrase literally just states that (A) will not become anything other than what it is, as the given definition is already the most accurate.

        A question about an example sentence and the provided translation:
        この会社かいしゃがここまで成長せいちょうしたのは、かれとの出会であいがあったからにほかならない
        Bunpro translation: Being able to get this far at this company is thanks to none other than meeting him. - I suppose it implies that “someone got this far”, not “the company got this far”.

        My understanding (rough translation): The fact that this company has grown this much is none other than because (they) met him."

        Am I correctly understanding that the subject of the Japanese sentence is “the company” that grew, not that “someone grew in the company”? Or am I mising something?

        Hi!

        My understanding is the same as yours: it is the company the one that has grown (up to this point). Thus the use of . Furthermore, the second meaning listed in Jisho for 成長 is coherent with this understanding.

        If someone grew in the company, it might be ‘この会社ここまで成長したのは…’.

        HTH!
