Full Editorial Writeup
This is an established Southern California professional services firm that delivers outsourced accounting, finance, human resources, and operational support to businesses and nonprofits. Founded in 2011, the company bundles strategic advisory work with hands-on execution: fractional CFO and CPO leadership, outsourced accounting and HR departments, process improvement, and readiness assessments covering audit, exit, and business continuity. Services are delivered remotely and onsite to a national and international client base.
With 33 employees generating roughly $5.2M in revenue and $724K in EBITDA, the firm sits at a credible mid-market scale for an outsourced back-office provider. The client roster spans construction, life sciences, manufacturing and distribution, technology, retail, nonprofits, and private education, which spreads risk across cyclical and non-cyclical verticals. The fractional and outsourced model tends to produce sticky, retainer-style relationships because clients embed the firm into their core finance and HR operations.
The seller is retiring and the business is positioned as a bolt-on for a CPA firm, HR consultancy, or broader advisory practice. The complementary service lines create clear cross-sell and expansion paths, and the lease runs through mid-2027 with modest rent of about $8,660 per month on a small 1,582 square foot footprint, reflecting a largely distributed workforce.
Why we like it
- Earnings quality is solid for a services firm at this scale: $724K EBITDA on $5.2M revenue is roughly a 14% margin, and the model leans on outsourced retainers rather than one-off project work. Fractional CFO/CPO and outsourced accounting/HR engagements typically bill monthly and renew by default, which supports predictable cash flow.
- The moat here is embeddedness. When a firm runs your accounting close, payroll, HR compliance, and fractional finance leadership, switching costs are high and relationships last years. That stickiness is far more durable than transactional tax-prep work.
- Demand for outsourced finance and HR is structurally rising as small and mid-sized businesses avoid the cost of full-time CFOs, controllers, and HR directors. Readiness services like audit prep, exit readiness, and business continuity are needs that persist across the economic cycle, not just in good times.
