A national record of lower middle market ownership transitions, the verified independent sponsors that have bought companies like them, and the capital observed financing those deals. Facts, inferences and estimates are labelled as such, with the source and the date, on every row.

Independent sponsors

Verified sponsor firms, identified by evidence that names them

Evidence identifies a firm: a publisher named it as the buyer in an announced transaction, a law firm or capital partner page names it as an independent sponsor, or its own site says so. Only these firms are compared with companies anywhere on this site.
