The candidate universe
About this listPrivately held employers in sponsor-relevant verticals, from the Department of Labor benefit plan record and the sources listed on each page. Size is a probable band from public proxies, never a point.The scores rank what the filings show, not how likely a sale is. Replayed against 250 dated transactions, the highest-scoring tenth changed hands no more often than similar companies (0.94 times the usual rate over two years), so read a high score as a reason to look, never as a prediction. The list opens on the latest dated event instead.A small square beside a company marks succession markers: transition readiness of 20 or more, filed facts about ownership age and plan history.Filters
