When it comes to business valuations services for areas such as ESOPs, issuance of employee stock options, estate and gift tax matters, shareholder disputes and litigation, and purchase price allocation of intangible assets, experience matters.

Center Point’s staff is comprised of full-time business valuation analysts with ASA, finance, and accounting backgrounds. Collectively our team has completed hundreds of engagements across many industries. We invest significant time and effort in attending seminars, courses, and certification programs to remain at the cutting edge of our profession. We also invest significantly into online databases and library resources to provide the most current and relevant appraisals possible. While these are very important elements to a successful business valuation practice, there is no substitute for experience. Center Point’s President, Greg P. Tesone, has valued several hundred companies in industries such as high-tech, life sciences, manufacturing, construction, and professional services, for purposes such as taxation, transactions, litigation, and succession planning.

Center Point has an unwavering commitment to independence and objectivity in every appraisal we complete. This is reinforced by our exclusive focus on business valuation services. We do not provide accounting or tax services, or accept commission-based transaction work. In fact, Center Point often engages the clients of CPA firms in conflict of interest situations. Center Point and its professionals adhere to the highest valuation industry standards promulgated by the American Society of Appraisers (ASA) and the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP).

Center Point provides independent, USPAP certified business valuations and stakes its reputation on every valuation report we issue. We recognize clients, buyers, sellers, government agencies, and the courts make important financial decisions based on our valuations. That’s why we stand behind each and every valuation report we provide and why we are available to appear as an expert witness in business valuation matters.

Our clients require 100% confidence in our abilities and credibility. This is why Center Point is grounded in values of independence, objectivity, honesty, and integrity. We openly communicate with our clients and treat them the way we would want to be treated. Our clients, from our smallest start-up business to our largest ESOP clients, can always rely on us to receive fair, honest, and reliable services.

We know that the most important aspect of our business is you. We are easy to work with and want our clients to trust in our advice completely. Our reputation for honesty and integrity, along with our flexibility and responsiveness to our clients’ needs, makes us a step above the rest.
