Smarter Due Diligence

Quality of Earnings You Can Trust

Buying or selling a business? A Quality of Earnings (QofE) analysis is one of the most important steps you can take. It goes far beyond a simple review of financial statements—helping you uncover what’s really driving profitability, cash flow, and risk.

At Cayne Crossing, we approach QofE with the same rigor we learned at the Big 4, scaled to match the size of your deal. We dig into customers, vendors, employees, and bank data to reconcile what’s happening in the numbers with what’s happening in the business. The result? Clarity you can count on when making a major decision.

our Investments

Where We’ve Invested — and Why

We partner with searchers and small business operators to invest in businesses that are built to last. From landscaping and logistics to solar and food distribution, each investment reflects our hands-on approach, rigorous diligence, and long-term commitment to supporting exceptional entrepreneurs.

Our Services

What We Do

Our services are shaped by experience. We don’t just check boxes — we solve problems, close gaps, and move deals forward. 

Financial & Tax Diligence

Whether you're buying or selling, a business is more than just numbers on paper. We go beyond the surface to assess the financial health and tax position of a company, helping you identify red flags, validate earnings, evaluate working capital, and understand the real drivers behind performance. Our diligence process gives you a clear-eyed view of what you're walking into—or walking away from—so you can negotiate with confidence and avoid costly surprises.

Outsourced Accounting

Accurate, timely financials are essential—but building and managing an internal accounting team can be costly and time-consuming. Our outsourced accounting solutions give you reliable bookkeeping, reconciliations, financial reporting, and back-office support, all handled by experienced professionals who understand your business. Whether you're scaling up or streamlining, we provide the clarity and consistency you need to make informed decisions and stay on track.

Fractional CFO

Growing businesses often need strategic financial leadership long before they're ready for a full-time CFO. That’s where we come in. Our fractional CFO services give you access to experienced financial executives who can help you with forecasting, cash flow management, budgeting, capital structure, investor communications, and more. We tailor our involvement to your needs, so you get high-impact insight without the high overhead.

Tax Compliance

Tax issues can derail a deal, drain cash, or distract from what matters most. We help businesses stay compliant with local, state, and federal tax requirements while proactively identifying risks and planning opportunities. From sales tax filings to complex pass-through structures, we manage the details so you don’t have to—and ensure your business stays in good standing and out of trouble.

A Smarter Way to Partner

From first call to post-close, our process is built to reduce friction, uncover value, and help you succeed long after the deal is done.
