“After 25 years of working with IT Services and Technology companies, I can tell you that a valuation analyst that does not specialize in valuing IT Services and Technology companies will almost always misrepresent the true value of the firm for failure to understand the industry attributes and idiosyncrasies that fundamentally drive value.”

“Working with Reed and Heidi was a comfortable and easy process. There is a lot of information that needs to be gathered to do an accurate assessment of a technology business and they made it manageable and painless. The report we received about our business at the end of the process was priceless. Everything was broken down, easy to read and easy to understand.”
