Amplēo Marketing, a Lehi-based firm providing fractional services, including marketing, finance and human resources, has announced that its valuation division, Peak Business Valuation, has acquired Nationwide Valuations, a specialist in SBA-compliant business valuations and certified machinery and equipment appraisals.
Peak Business Valuation provides certified business appraisals and advisory services.
Peak said the acquisition strengthens its equipment appraisal practice, extends its reach with SBA lenders and expands the range of services available to Nationwide’s established client base.
Nationwide Valuations, based in Greenwood Village, Colorado, has provided independent business valuations and equipment appraisals for more than 20 years for SBA lending, litigation and IRS requirements. Its certified appraisers hold designations from the American Society of Appraisers, the Institute of Business Appraisers, the National Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts, and the National Equipment and Business Brokerage Institute.
“Nationwide Valuations is a firm with genuine depth in both business valuations and equipment appraisals, and a reputation that lenders trust,” said Ryan Hutchins, president of Peak Business Valuation. “Peak is already the highest-rated valuation firm in the country and adding their team makes that foundation even stronger.”
Nationwide Valuations founder Marsha Golgart will be stepping aside following the transition to pursue a new venture. The Nationwide team is expected to integrate smoothly into Peak’s structure, with no disruption to existing client relationships or service delivery.
“Nationwide Valuations was built on the belief that valuation work carries real consequences for lenders, business owners, and the integrity of the transaction itself,” said Golgart. “Our focus has always been on delivering independent, defensible valuations backed by experienced professionals who understand both the technical standards and the business realities behind every engagement. Joining Peak Business Valuation ensures that commitment not only continues but expands.”
Backed by Unity Partners and serving over 14,000 client companies nationwide, Amplēo continues to grow by adding firms that strengthen what its divisions can deliver, the company said. Nationwide Valuations is Amplēo’s seventh acquisition in less than two years.
