PROVIDING DIRECTION
THERE ARE NUMEROUS DECISIONS to be made along the path to achieving your financial goals. Every business decision you make affects the bottom line. But, informed decisions require time and know-how. Can you make these decisions in less time, with more peace of mind? Absolutely! You can make informed decisions faster by utilizing outside resources. Resources whose interest in your success is as strong as your own. Resources that provide a base of experience to help you evaluate the factors affecting your decision. Resources that provide you with peace of mind, and additional time to pursue other goals. Osburn, Henning and Company can be that resource. We provide services to businesses during each stage of the business life cycle. And, we assist individuals in making better financial choices. We are in the business of helping people achieve their financial goals.
BUSINESS SERVICES
SMARTER BEGINNINGS
THE SUCCESS OF A NEW BUSINESS depends on a sound foundation. This foundation is the plan for financing and delivering your products and services. It is the strategy for managing your personnel. It is the development of core ideals and the creation of the company itself. We can help you with organizational issues such as choice of legal and tax entity, capitalization of the business, lease versus purchase decisions and much more.
AS YOUR COMPANY GROWS we can assist you in developing strategies to increase revenues and operating efficiencies. We will define and monitor your company's key performance indicators to achieve the goals you have set. As your business resource, we can help you get a handle on the numbers. Play "what if?" Budgets and cash flow forecasts are both great tools for managing your business. We will become a part of your management team, filling in the gaps where needed.
ASSURED ACCOUNTABILITY
THROUGHOUT THE LIFE OF YOUR BUSINESS you may want assistance in other areas. You may wish to establish an employee benefit plan. We will advise you how to structure your plan, and assist in the ongoing reporting requirements. Computers are now a must in every business. A new system or change in your present software or hardware may increase efficiencies and enhance management information. We can help with this assessment. If your need is training or simply manpower, we can help. An appropriately designed accounting system provides timely management information and is the basis for preserving the assets of your company. We will provide varying degrees of assistance in this area, from the recording of your checks, to reviewing your internal controls and overall accounting systems and processes.
COMPLIANCE SIMPLIFIED
We will provide the reporting on your financial statements, whether compiled, reviewed or audited, as required by your banker, bonding agent, suppliers or investors. At times, businesses have a need for fraud auditing, litigation support, risk assessment and other assurance services which are natural offshoots of our more traditional services. Dealing with taxing authorities is costly in both dollars and time. We will advise you of the tax consequences of alternative structures and timing of business transactions to achieve the most favorable tax result. Preparation of various tax returns-federal, state and local-are among the other services we offer. PRESERVING SUCCESS
THE SUCCESSFUL COMPANY can survive its founder. Will you sell, liquidate, or transfer the business to your heirs? Projections and feasibility studies can be valuable to the owner of a mature business in evaluating an expansion, a merger or an acquisition. If you are considering a private sale, or an initial public offering, we can help in initiating and completing the transaction. Proper planning can make your business' transaction a smooth one, and provide added comfort to you and those who depend on you. We will be at your side to help you through the process.
WHILE OUR FIRM HAS ALWAYS BEEN PROUD of the diversification of our client base...and the experience we have gained from such a base...we have also established an emphasis in several industries, including construction, banking, insurance, not-for-profit and employee benefits. We have dedicated both personnel and monetary resources to each of these areas to assure our reputation and presence in these industries remain strong.
INDIVIDUAL SERVICES
WHAT MATTERS MOST
IN TODAY'S DYNAMIC TAX ENVIRONMENT people are faced with not only a complex set of tax rules, but rules that change constantly. We can reduce the resulting confusion by helping you understand and plan for the changing tax laws, and by preparing the various required returns. Tax, estate and retirement planning are all critical to preserving your personal assets. Your needs will vary over your lifetime-braces, college tuition, weddings, travel, and retirement. As your situation changes, so will your planning needs. We, along with other key advisors, will help you work through these changes. Many of the individuals whom we are presently assisting with their retirement and estate tax plans have been clients of our firm since they took their first job. We continue to strive to build long lasting relationships through individualized, personal service. Expect this kind of service from us.
