Business partnerships are formed for many reasons, and many people find decades of success with the right partner. Sooner or later, nearly all partnerships come to an end. In many cases, a major life event, such as retirement, a change in health, divorce, etc. or conflicting viewpoints between partners may prompt a dissolution. Ideally, during the company’s founding, a dissolution procedure would have been outlined in the partnership agreement, but this isn’t always the case.
What is a SPAC. Special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) are on the rise. A SPAC is a publicly traded shell company with no underlying operating business that seeks to merge with a target operating company. According to Nasdaq , in 2015, SPACs made up approximately 12% of the IPO market, but by 2020, that number had risen to approximately 53%.

So, you’re struggling to let go. It can feel excruciating to let go of that precious vine, can’t it? It’s like an extension of your very own life, which you sweat blood and tears to grow and nurture. I get it. As an owner, I am walking in those same shoes. When you’re faced with the real possibility of not knowing an outcome, one which you have very little control over, the ensuing anxiety can be crippling.
Intellectual Property (IP) has been adopted as a catchall for many different types of intangible assets. The valuation of various IP is a unique specialty of The Mentor Group. If a company did not acquire its IP, and only developed it internally, the Balance Sheet will not reflect any IP amount. Likely, the only way that IP will be valued is if it is transferred to another entity.

QUESTION: I’ve been asked whether members of our company’s board of directors can participate in our cafeteria plan. Can we allow this?

EBSA Disaster Relief Notice 2021-01. Available at [link]. The DOL has issued EBSA Disaster Relief Notice 2021-01, clarifying the duration of certain COVID-19-related deadline extensions. As background, the DOL and IRS issued guidance last year specifying that the COVID-19 outbreak period—defined as the period beginning March 1, 2020, and ending 60 days after the announced end of the COVID-19 national emergency—is disregarded when calculating various deadlines under COBRA, ERISA, and HIPAA’s spe

M&A is a lengthy, time-consuming process that can be ruthlessly unnerving. When done right, however, it can yield attractive transaction value. When done right, it doesn’t feel like you sold your puppy to the butcher, either. In order to avoid your M&A transaction becoming violent, you need to remember one thing: your transaction is all about adding value to the target company.

The old adages that "cash is king" and "you can’t spend profits" still hold true today. But however well-known these sayings might be, it requires a change in mindset to properly implement a cash flow management system that predicts your business's runaway as accurately as possible. Key to this new mindset is understanding the difference between the Statement of Cash Flows, a historical look at the source and uses of cash, and the Cash Flow Statement, which uses transaction history and forward-l
For many tech owners we talk with, we hear a similar story and dream: Start a small tech firm. Build it into a powerhouse. Get acquired by a massive corporation, entering into a whole new tax bracket. The journey to eventually selling your tech firm can be a long one, full of some highs, such as celebratory moments where growth goals are achieved, people are hired, and milestones are met.
The journey of building a tech firm is filled with milestones. First hire (first fire). First big investment. First big client. However, what’s not often talked about is the milestone of making your first acquisition. I realized this as I helped navigate more than 60 merger and acquisition (M&A) transactions, over the last 20 years. Recognizing an acquisition opportunity is just the first step in what can be a long and complicated, yet extremely rewarding process.
Like Goldilocks and her quest for the perfect bowl of porridge, the mythical “perfect fit” isn’t possible, but finding the “right fit” is very necessary. The “right fit” is a deeply personal definition. It’s specific to the cultures of your tech firm and the one you’re searching for. It’s specific to the people who live and work inside both of these excellent firms.
Sales and Marketing should always be working towards the same goal: securing business and helping their technology firm grow.

Less than a month after the UK completed its separation from the European Union, Britain’s five largest business groups warned the government that companies were facing substantial difficulties moving goods through UK ports. Indeed, trade compliance concerns persist that Brexit will adversely impact business performance in the coming months and years as a result of border and customs disputes, supply chain shortages and disruptions, shipping delays, and stoppages, increased import and export cos
Remuneration is the money paid for work or a service. In ancient Egypt, workers were remunerated for their labor with beer and other necessary commodities (i.e., bread, meat, clothing, etc.) and payment was recorded on clay tablets. In the early 1900s, automobile engineer Henry Ford made headlines for paying remuneration at two times the going hourly wage at the time – $5 per hour – to many of his employees.
