Peak Business Valuation Acquires Nationwide Valuations to Expand SBA Reach
Lehi-based Peak Business Valuation has acquired Nationwide Valuations, a move designed to bolster its equipment appraisal practice and deepen ties with SBA lenders. The deal marks the seventh acquisition in two years for parent company Amplēo, integrating two decades of specialized appraisal expertise into its existing service platform.

The merger brings Nationwide’s technical focus on USPAP-compliant machinery and equipment appraisals directly into Peak’s operations. Nationwide has spent over 20 years serving the SBA lending community, litigation needs, and IRS requirements. Their team holds credentials from the American Society of Appraisers and the National Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts, covering industries ranging from heavy construction to medical services.
Ryan Hutchins, President of Peak Business Valuation, noted that the addition strengthens the firm’s ability to handle complex, asset-heavy transactions. Beyond equipment appraisal, the integration grants Nationwide’s clients access to Amplēo’s broader infrastructure, including fractional HR, finance, and quality of earnings analysis. Following the transition, Nationwide founder Marsha Golgart will step aside to pursue new ventures, while the existing staff joins the Peak organization to ensure continuity for ongoing client engagements.
