Entertainment & Sports
The life of professional entertainers and athletes is so cyclical, potentially causing many accounting, tax, income, and retirement planning issues unique to their world. These issues include the impact and liabilities of royalties, advances, tour expenses, promoter costs, syndication, licensing, front-end/back-end/cancellation clauses, rating-based revenues, bonuses, and more.
We have tailored accounting services specific to our performing clients – actors, models, musicians, and athletes. We know your business and how to serve you, no matter what you may be dealing with, whether it be audits of royalty, endorsement, and merchandising agreements, handling IRS audits, tour management, or addressing lingering issues from past years’ taxes.

Mergers & Acquisitions
Should you walk away from a prospective merger or acquisition? It is an industry-accepted fact that 83% of all mergers and acquisitions fail to produce any benefit for the shareholders, and over 50% of all mergers and acquisitions actually destroy value.
Understand the issues that can disguise facts or derail your plans for success before you commit to a merger or acquisition. Go in with a plan and an experienced professional team to:
Analyze
communication.
Identify
the drivers that determine the actual profitability of the new model.
Filter
out unnecessary noise from shareholders and others who may not be able to contribute to the process.
Discern
cultural issues that are not being addressed successfully.

Business & Personal Mortgage Issues
In a tight lending environment, it is more critical than ever that all supporting financial documents to proposed lenders reveal the strength of the project and the correct and proper financial position of the entity seeking the mortgage. One reason a mortgage may decline is that tax returns do not express the ratios some lenders require even though the project received adequate capitalization. Many commercial properties are also too unique for traditional banks, although the project would qualify on its fundamentals. Know what strategies make sense for your deal before you approach your credit sources.
