Believe it or not, the most effective time to get a business valuation is long before you're ready to sell!

Most business owners don't consider leveraging a business valuation until they have an interested buyer, a successor ready to step in, or a fixed timeline for retirement. But understanding what your business is worth today gives you a clearer starting point for the decisions ahead and more opportunity to improve the final sale price.

Three-five years out from a sale, owners have time to make adjustments that have real impact on the value of their business, but if you wait until you’re ready to sell, there’s not enough time to make substantial changes like:
➡️Improving key value drivers
➡️Addressing known risks
➡️Reducing uncertainty
➡️Strengthening succession plans
➡️Becoming better equipped to explain why the business is valuable
➡️And more!

There is a difference between running a successful business and having a business that is well positioned for a transition. If selling or transferring the business is somewhere on the horizon, even a few years out, it may be worth having the conversation now.

Calling all Epic Employees! Have you considered how your stock will impact your final tax bill?

Epic Systems is privately held, and its stock program can involve different types of equity with terms that may change over time. That level of complexity means there are many different variables that can all impact your overall tax picture.

In his latest article, Noel Willis, CPA breaks down the major considerations around employee stock programs that shape short and long-term tax planning.

Did you know that the Wegner CPAs Recruiting Services supports the people on both sides of the hiring table?💡

At Wegner, we know that people are the heart of every organization, and that belief drives our approach to recruiting. We don’t just fill roles; we help people find careers they love by connecting them with opportunities that match their skills, goals, and aspirations.

This people-first philosophy benefits everyone involved, creating long-term satisfaction on both sides of the table.

Just ask Jaidyn Koch, who worked hand-in-hand with Director of Recruiting Services, Angela Wurtz, PHR, SHRM-CP to land her dream job:

"While on the hunt for a new job, I met Angela with Wegner CPAs. From start to finish, she made the interviewing and hiring process seamless and stress free. Angela really took the time to get to know me and made it a priority for her to match me with a job that fit my needs and wants... In the years of job hunting and interviewing, I have never had such a good experience like I did while working with Angela. By taking the time to get to know me, I feel like she found the perfect fit for both me and for the business I am now working for... Working with Angela made this process completely stress- and anxiety-free and I am very grateful for the time she spent to make this such a seamless process."

We believe recruitment should be about connection, not transactions. Because when people love what they do and where they do it, everyone wins!

Sometimes a new source of funding isn't worth the price of admission.

Especially in a challenging market, it's understandably difficult for nonprofits to turn down new sources of revenue. However, it's important for organizations to fully understand how each grant and (perhaps more importantly) it's requirements will impact your operations, cash flow, and mission before accepting an award.

Senior Manager of Nonprofit Advisory Services, Melodi Bunting, CPA, CMA, CGMA recommends evaluating each new grant opportunity by asking the following questions:

➡️Does the funding fit our unique mission and strategy?
➡️What will it take to administer the grant?
➡️Can our cash flow support the structure and timing of the funding?
➡️If we have to invest in operations, staff, or materials to support the grant, will those investments pay off in other areas?

For many real estate investors, tax planning strategy often focuses on generating deductions, but it's also important to evaluate whether those deductions actually generate a reduction in your tax bill.

Passive activity loss rules can limit when real estate owners are able to use those deductions. Understanding how those rules apply can help you evaluate a tax strategy based on both the potential savings and when those savings may actually be available.

Community is a big part of what makes Wegner feel like Wegner. 💙

The last few weeks, we’ve had plenty of opportunities to spend time together and show up for the communities around us. For example, last week our various office teams gathered to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with great food and a few rounds of Lotería, and the week prior, our Baraboo office put their volunteer time to work supporting Beyond Blessed Food Pantry!

It’s also been a busy season of meeting future accountants on campus, connecting with people throughout our communities, and squeezing in a few more golf outings before Wisconsin reminds us that winter is coming.

Whether we’re learning together, lending a hand, or simply making time to connect, we’re grateful for the people and our communities that make these moments possible.
