Privately Held Companies

Featured insights:

As privately held companies grow, the opportunities increase — and so do the complexities. At HORNE, we help you navigate the business, financial, tax, technical and personnel issues that arise along the way so that you can focus on growing your business and achieving your goals.

We handle the numbers. You take care of business.

Owners of privately held companies often are driven by a desire to work for themselves and control their own destiny. But as time passes, they encounter questions that go beyond day-to-day business.

Have you taken steps to mitigate risk and exposure? Is the business fully compliant with state and federal regulations? Is an adequate IT and security infrastructure in place? Is the market value of the business being maximized? Is there a succession plan in place to keep the business going after you exit? Are you putting yourself in an ideal position for an acquisition, merger or IPO?

At HORNE, we excel at helping you form strategies to deal with the short- and long-term issues you face. We offer insights that support well-informed decisions and help you reach your desired outcome. This includes developing effective business and market strategies, harnessing the latest data and IT solutions, and laying out a long-term plan for success and succession.
