24 merger-related ADV-W withdrawal filings all cite sold, acquired or merged

Advisers filed 24 merger-related Form ADV-W withdrawal filings between September 1 and September 30, 2026, and all 24 cited "sold, acquired or merged" as the reason for leaving registration. The reasons are the filers' own statements; they do not, on their own, confirm that a sale, acquisition or merger was completed.

The merger-related withdrawals sat within a complete September 2026 Form ADV-W archive of 69 filings. The counts describe filings rather than unique transactions, so one filing does not necessarily equal one deal.

None of the month's filings came with a verified transaction announcement. The monthly transaction research lists no verified announcement for any firm named in the September filings, including Stillwater Capital Advisors, LLC, Opes Wealth Management, LLC and U.S. Capital Wealth Advisors, LLC. That absence does not by itself establish that no transaction occurred.

The month's numbers carry further limits: filing counts do not establish unique deal counts, and withdrawal filings do not show asset or client transfers, business closures or the outcome of any transaction.
