OUR MISSION:

BRING ADVANCED
M&A ADVISORY SERVICES TO THE LOWER MIDDLE-MARKET

EQA was founded in 2019 in Denver, Colorado by Matt Williams and Chris Lueth in response to the void of competent and dedicated transaction advocacy available to organizations operating below typical middle market thresholds. Since then, we have engaged with hundreds of buyers and sellers and grown our team to enable us to continue providing exceptional service to our clients. EQA currently operates out of both Denver, CO and Boston, MA and continues to serve clients both domestically and internationally.

OUR TEAM

Our team members consist of attorneys, CPAs, and seasoned deal makers with experience ranging from regional middle-market investment banks to NASDAQ. We pride ourselves on being entrepreneurs, problem solvers, and resources for whatever needs to get done.

EIGHT QUARTER ADVISORS

Eight Quarter Advisors draws its name and inspiration from the world of woodworking. In woodworking, an "eight quarter" board refers to a board cut precisely at 2” thick. During World War II, material shortages led lumber mills to begin producing boards cut at slightly less than the advertised dimensions. A 2” board became a 1.5” board, and so on across the entire market. This practice continues today, and the "eight quarter" board represents a trusted standard of accuracy as well as excitement from the vast creative possibilities it offers.

Eight Quarter Advisors positions itself as the preferred option in a world where meticulous attention to detail and reliability are paramount. We are a trusted and steadfast partner in the lower middle market crafting tailored transaction solutions with exacting precision and an unwavering pursuit of excellence.
