Tariffs are only one piece of an increasingly complex tax picture for manufacturers.

Duty drawback and foreign-trade zones may help manage tariff costs, while changing federal incentives can influence capital investment decisions.

At the same time, growing state and local tax complexity is adding another layer to planning.

Our latest manufacturing tax outlook breaks down what manufacturers should be evaluating now.

Sun, smiles, and stronger connections.

Last week we stepped away from desks and deadlines to spend an afternoon together, with games, conversations, and a chance to be colleagues and friends.

These moments matter. Time together outside work builds trust, deepens collaboration, and reminds us why we do this work.

A big thank you to everyone who helped plan and run the event, and to the families who joined. Your time and energy made the day special.

AI is starting to show measurable returns in finance, but not where many teams focus.

Finance leaders need to move beyond experimentation and track outcomes that matter to the business.

Look for faster close cycles; more accurate, actionable forecasting; clearer, faster decision-making; reduced manual work; and the ability for finance teams to spend time on higher-value analysis.

Adoption is successful when AI solves defined business problems and leaders measure the results, not when tools are simply deployed.

Read our blog for a deeper dive on where AI ROI is actually showing up and how finance leaders can prioritize it. https://na2.hubs.ly/H071HB00
