Assurance Services

The financial statement audit is the cornerstone of S&B's Assurance Services. Our privately owned and publicly held clients rely on us not only for high quality assurance services, but for unbiased information and proactive service. They expect ongoing financial guidance that will help them make the right business decisions and avoid costly mistakes. We bring independence, integrity and credibility to the financial statements when we sign our report and we assure that the users of the financial statements will receive a quality report that complies with the requirements of professional standards.

Audit, Review and Compilation of Financial Statements

Audits
We look beyond the accounting entries to review the underlying operations using an audit methodology based on developing and maintaining an insightful understanding of our clients' operations. This allows us to identify financial risks as well as opportunities. Potential reporting issues and challenges are identified and addressed up-front because we dedicate significant partner and management involvement in the early planning stage. Our professionals emphasize close communication so we can be responsive to clients' requests, inquiries and concerns.

Reviews and Compilations of Financial Statements
All compilations and reviews are conducted in accordance with the attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Our understanding of our clients' unique businesses and operations is of critical importance when expressing assurance that no material modifications need to be made to the financial statements.

Preparation of Forecasts and Projections
We assist clients' management teams in preparing forecasts and projections that are in compliance with reporting standards.

Special Financial Analysis and Consultation
We assist companies in assessing the fiscal condition and best practices and provide them with recommendations for implementation.

Special Auditing and Accounting Services
We can help management in providing attest services other than financial statement attestations. In addition, we have alerted many companies to the potential impact of new rules and regulations issued by standard-setting bodies such as the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB).

Operations Reviews
S&B has worked with companies, both domestic and foreign-owned, in a variety of industries for many years. We have provided business analysis, process re-engineering, systems implementations, manufacturing planning, project management, training and cost accounting with the goal of improving client profitability.
