A $500 million publicly-held medical imaging company acquired a new line of business outside its core competency. CFO expertise was needed for post-acquisition accounting integration. The CFO did audit preparation and SEC filing preparation. Also addressed were complex software and multiple element arrangements accounting rules.

A CFO was contracted to prepare for a first-time audit for a company that had never been audited before. As the company was considering a reverse triangular merger with a NASDAQ-listed foreign issuer, services also included a business case evaluation of the merger. When analysis determined the merger was not advantageous, the deal was killed. The CFO was retained to finish the audit.

A global consulting firm had revenue recognition challenges requiring restatements. The CFO addressed improper accounting for intangibles and improper accounting for affiliates’ foreign operations. The revenue recognition error was corrected. New processes ensured correct statement preparation and addressed foreign currency translation accounting.
