Commonwealth M&A Welcomed Into Platinum Club by M&A Source Awards

The Platinum Club honors deal makers for having completed over $50M in total transaction
value in a single calendar year

PHILADELPHIA, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Commonwealth M&A, a premier full-service Merger & Acquisition advisory firm providing transactional and valuation services to small and medium sized businesses, is proud to announce that founders Rick Calabrese and Joe Bergin have been awarded the prestigious Platinum Award by M&A Source, the leading professional community for lower middle market (LMM) transaction advisors.

The Platinum Award recognizes deal makers for completing sell-side or buy-side deals totaling more than $50M in combined purchase price in the prior calendar year. While there are over 400 M&A Source members, there were only 4 awarded the Platinum Club recognition this year, putting Commonwealth M&A in a top tier bracket. This distinction reflects Rick and Joe's continued commitment to high-integrity dealmaking at Commonwealth M&A, delivering the same level of strategic advisory as large-scale enterprises.

"M&A Source is an industry leader; they are a go-to resource for anyone looking to find a reputable advisor when they're ready to sell their business," said Rick Calabrese, co-founder of Commonwealth M&A. "To be recognized as a top performer amongst such an esteemed group of industry leaders is an honor, and we couldn't be prouder." 

Joe Bergin added, "We've built Commonwealth on the belief that small business owners deserve the same level of strategy and execution as Fortune 100 companies. We treat every deal as if it were our own family and we always want to secure the best value for our clients, so to take a step back and see it totalled up to more than $50M in just a single year is really incredible. We're honored to be recognized by M&A Source and even happier to have such successful results for the businesses that we work with."

M&A Source is the definitive source of opportunity and professional development for lower middle market deal professionals, including M&A advisors, investment bankers, private equity firms, and family offices.
