Financial Reporting

We specialize in supporting startup and high-growth companies. Our client base primarily consists of venture capital and private equity-backed portfolio companies, pre-IPO entities navigating the going-public transition, and established small to mid-cap publicly traded corporations. 

Yes. Many of our clients are scaling rapidly and need institutional-grade technical expertise but aren’t ready for a full-time, permanent hire. We provide scalable support, plugging into your current financial reporting framework to provide fractional CFO, controller and SEC Directors, to lead your financial reporting function for transaction or on-going support. 

We act as a seamless extension of your internal team, bridging the gap between day-to-day general ledger accounting and the rigorous demands of external stakeholders. When it comes to external auditors (including Big 4 and national firms), we act as management’s technical advocate. We prepare audit-ready workpapers and technical memos, proactively resolving complex accounting positions so your audit moves forward efficiently without unexpected delays or write-ups.

The ideal time to engage us is 12 to 18 months before your targeted public debut. Achieving IPO readiness requires substantial runway to restructure historical financial statements, upgrade internal controls, adopt public-company accounting standards, and draft the initial registration statement (Form S-1 or S-4). Early engagement minimizes execution risk and prevents costly delays when market windows open.

Yes. We provide comprehensive support for the financial portions of your registration statements. This includes drafting footnotes, structuring the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) section, compiling required historical financial data, and ensuring full compliance with Regulation S-X.

Absolutely. If your company has identified a material weakness in internal controls or received an SEC comment letter, we provide rapid-response technical support. We help analyze the issue, design and implement robust remediation plans, and draft precise responses to regulatory inquiries to preserve your company’s compliance standing.

Institutional-backed startups frequently deal with complex debt and equity instruments. We regularly handle the technical accounting and financial presentation for these complex equity and debt instruments, including SAFEs, convertible debt, preferred stock tranches, complex warrant valuations, and stock-based compensation (ASC 718).

Yes. We have extensive experience implementing complex GAAP and IFRS standards that heavily impact high-growth and public companies. This includes, but is not limited to, ASC 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers), ASC 842 (Lease Accounting), and ASC 805 (Business Combinations and Purchase Accounting for M&A). We deliver complete documentation and audit-ready technical memos.

To maintain strict regulatory independence, we do not issue independent audit opinions. Instead, we work exclusively on management’s side to make you “audit-ready.” We build the financial statements, disclosures, and supporting documentation to PCAOB or AICPA standards, ensuring that when your external auditors arrive, they receive a clean and fully-supported package.

VC and PE investors demand timely, high-fidelity data. We analyze your current record-to-report process, identify bottlenecks in your sub-ledgers, implement financial reporting automation where appropriate, and design sophisticated KPI and reporting packages. Our goal is to compress your close timeline while increasing the accuracy of investor deliverables.

We design and implement internal control frameworks (COSO) that match your company’s specific growth stage. For pre-IPO companies, we perform gap analyses and build scalable control environments. For public companies, we support ongoing SOX 404 readiness, testing, and documentation, ensuring your control environment keeps pace with operational scaling without creating unnecessary administrative friction.

Our technical accounting capabilities span many sectors. We excel in industries with high concentrations of institutional funding and complex revenue streams. This includes technology & SaaS, digital assets (including cryptocurrencies), life sciences & healthcare, fintech, manufacturing, cross-border entities, and many others.

Yes. We regularly work with foreign private issuers (FPIs) navigating the complexities of entering the US capital markets.

Our team handles the financial reporting requirements unique to cross-border transactions, including:

• Drafting and preparing Form F-1 and Form F-4 registration statements.

• Preparing financial statements under IFRS or managing complex IFRS to US GAAP reconciliations if required by the SEC.

• Ensuring your historical financials and disclosures comply with SEC and PCAOB standards.

We act as your US-based technical accounting arm, coordinates directly with your local finance team, and ensures your cross-border filing moves through the SEC review process without technical delays.

We begin with a discovery session to understand your business, challenges, and goals. From there, we propose a tailored scope of work with clear deliverables.

In most cases, we can begin almost right away, i.e. within a few days depending on scope and urgency.
