About
Springdale Advisors LLC provides discretionary investment management and also offers research and investment-analysis services to other registered investment advisers. The fee-only, single-advisor firm reported about $13.9 million in discretionary assets under management for a small roster of primarily high-net-worth individuals, trusts, foundations, and endowments as of December 31, 2025.
The firm typically implements all-capitalization global growth stock strategies that are highly concentrated, ordinarily holding about ten to 15 stocks, with one strategy long-only and another that may include three to 15 short positions. Investment decisions are driven by a mix of fundamental, technical, and cyclical analysis and draw on company meetings, industry contacts and corporate-rating/pricing services; portfolios are tailored to clients’ investment policies and may hold substantial cash when attractive opportunities are limited.
Noteworthy for a solo independent adviser, Springdale’s approach combines concentrated long/short exposures and the routine use of short positions (which typically involve borrowing securities) together with explicit use of corporate rating and pricing data—features that are uncommon among peers. The firm’s small client base, the provision of research to other advisers, and the availability of negotiable performance-based fee arrangements for qualified clients further distinguish its practice.

Forms ADV
Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
