Overview
A small private manufacturing company was in the process of being acquired by a competitor.

Challenge
The seller lacked the expertise and infrastructure to respond to the buyer’s requests.

Solution
Blythe Global handled all due diligence requests and acted as the first line of defense for questions from the buyer’s accounting, due diligence and legal teams. This assistance was critical in determining if the underlying assumptions of a merger or acquisition were correctly assessed. We helped collect, scrutinize and verify all required information and documentation and identified problems, errors, inconsistencies, threats and opportunities.

Results
Blythe Global helped facilitate a successful close of sale on time and at the requested price – turning a potentially damaging situation into a positive outcome.

Overview
A $40 million semiconductor company owned by a venture capital firm.

Challenge
This company needed to understand its options, as a candidate for both an IPO and an acquisition.

Solution
Blythe Global helped the executive team understand the ramifications of each option – including timelines, processes, staff requirements, costs (and how to control them), regulatory obligations and the implications of recent legislation.

Results
The executive team now understands the opportunities and risks involved in each option. They also have the information to make the kinds of investments that will increase their value – regardless of which option they choose.

Overview
A growing mid-sized manufacturing company was experiencing rapid growth that outpaced its small in-house finance team. The company needed stronger financial oversight but was not yet at the scale to justify a full-time controller.

Challenge
The company needed a partner with the expertise to address accounting system inefficiencies, improve reporting, and provide cost-effective oversight. The business initially engaged another fractional firm, but after five months of stalled progress, critical work still wasn’t being completed and the engagement was terminated.

Solution
Blythe Global Advisors was introduced through a trusted referral and chosen for its ERP expertise and team-based model, offering reliable support and long-term consistency. BGA delivered fractional controller services with early efforts focused on account clean-up in QuickBooks, remapping the ERP system, and clarifying reporting structures. The team applied a methodical, process-driven approach and was transparent around billing, offering flexible options to balance cost with efficiency.

Results
The company began to regain financial clarity, with more reliable P&L reporting and streamlined accounting systems. Early wins in QuickBooks and ERP clean-up created a stronger foundation for future growth. The fractional model delivered significant cost savings—roughly one-third the cost of a full-time hire—while providing access to a broader network of expertise. The client expressed appreciation for Blythe’s respect for their time, proactive communication, and the ability to quickly add value where a prior provider had failed.
