Pratt’s Stats now lists over 27,000 private-company M&A transactions thanks to business brokers and other intermediaries who contribute the data. Individuals who send in the most transactions are inducted into the Pratt’s Stats Hall of Fame. For the second quarter of 2017, they are:

• Greg Kells, Sunbelt Business Advisors (Ottawa, Ontario);

• Tex Garner, Sunbelt Business Brokers (Irving, Texas); and

• Al Statz, Exit Strategies Group Inc. (Petaluma, Calif.).

BVR wishes to thank these individuals and all of the other brokers who help maintain Pratt’s Stats as the most reliable data source of its kind.
