With the help of business intermediaries who submit deal information, Pratt’s Stats now lists over 24,000 private-company merger and acquisition (M&A) transactions in its database. BVR has created the Pratt’s Stats Hall of Fame to thank those intermediaries who have contributed the most transactions. For 2015, they are:

• Ian McLachlan, Business Team Inc. (San Jose, Calif.);

• Scott Perry, Gateway M&A LLC (Carrolton, Texas);

• Russell Cohen, Murphy Business & Financial Services (Davie, Fla.); and

• Paul Chambliss, Front Range Business Inc. (Boulder, Colo.).

Sincere thanks to these and all of the individuals who have helped BVR build Pratt’s Stats into the trusted and reliable data source that it is today.
