This letter is being submitted together with a copy of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”), which has been revised to address various of the Staff’s comments. The bold and numbered paragraphs below correspond to the numbered paragraphs in the Staff’s letter and are followed by the Company’s responses.

Risk Factors

“We are an emerging growth company and smaller reporting company…”, page 70

 

  1.

Reference is made to your disclosure on page 71 where you indicate within this risk factor that you intend to irrevocably opt out of the transition period. This appears to contradict disclosure elsewhere within your filing where you indicate that as an emerging growth company you intend to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards as allowed under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. Please clarify and/or revise accordingly.

Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and in response has revised the disclosure on page 73 of the Registration Statement. The Company intends to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards as allowed under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act.

Principal Stockholders, page 129

 

  2.

Please revise the amount and percent held by officers and directors as a group to include the ownership of Mr. Dooley through Everest Consolidator Sponsor, LLC. See Item 403(b) of Regulation S-K.

Response: The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and in response has revised the disclosure on page 134 of the Registration Statement.

Exhibits

 

  3.

Please include the consent of each director nominee to serve as a director. See Rule 438 of Regulation C.
