As you have seen, we measure our success by more than numbers alone. Our growth tells us we continue to move in the right direction, and our commitment to making a difference is strong.
Without question, 2017 was an outstanding year for Baker Tilly. It was a year in which we shared who we are and what we have to offer by connecting with our clients in meaningful ways to prepare for the future, collaborating with our people to achieve common goals and serving organizations to strengthen our communities. In 2018, we will remain focused on making a difference for our clients, our people and our communities. Because that's what matters.
