With a Cerius interim or part-time Finance Executive, you can:

  • Avoid CEO burnout.

One midmarket business services firm hired an interim CFO for five months during an executive search to get through the gap after the incumbent was removed under difficult circumstances.

During that time, the Cerius Executive:

  • Fixed balance sheet issues and finished purchase accounting in the first month
  • Reduced past-due receivables from over 50% to less than 10% in two months
  • Reduced monthly close cycle from seven days to less than 5.5 days
  • Reduced staff and improved reporting to one global finance executive
“I don’t have to be embarrassed when I present numbers to outsiders.”

  • Closed subordinated debt in less than two months, reducing existing LOC by 3%
  • Successfully restructured debt, saving the company $100,000 annually
  • Raised additional capital
  • Increased forecasting accuracy with less than 10% deviation

“Great job and exactly what was needed.”
