Selected Firms Offering And/Or Using
SPARDATA Products

When selecting a business appraiser, it is wise to look for experience and credibility. And SPARDATA is at the top of the list in both categories. There are few if any valuation firms with more experience than SPARDATA. Since 1990 we have valued over 27,000 businesses from one-person consulting firms to 10,000-employee conglomerates and everything in between. We have valued operating businesses, professional practices and start-ups. About half of our clients need a valuation because they are selling their businesses; the other half have an estate -planning, buy-sell or other business need.

The best way to judge any valuation firm’s credibility is to see who their clients are. Virtually all SPARDATA’s work is referred to us by trusted advisors. About 1/3 of our referrals come from CPAs, 1/3 from attorneys and 1/3 from financial advisors. Some of the leading financial service firms that surveyed the universe of business valuation providers and chose SPARDATA include New York Life, Morgan Stanley, MassMutual, Transamerica and hundreds of others. The Internal Revenue Service is also a SPARDATA clien, as is the SEC and the Federal Reserve

Thousands of clients have engaged SPARDATA to value over 27,000 different business entities. Following is a representative list of the attorneys, CPAs, financial planners and other advisors who have referred clients to us. (Please note that, to safeguard the privacy of our clients, it is SPARDATA's policy not to divulge the names of the businesses we have been asked to appraise.)
