Columbus, Ohio-based IPA 200 firm GBQ Partners LLC (FY21 net revenue of $44.5 million) is spinning off its valuation and employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) advisory teams into a new entity – GBQ Capital Advisors.
The new subsidiary will continue to specialize in the valuation of businesses, business interests and intangible assets in the context of transaction advisory, financial reporting, ESOPs, shareholder transactions and buy-sell agreements, equity-based compensation, estate and gift planning, and various corporate-related matters.
“This name change not only reflects the exponential growth of our valuation and ESOP advisory practices but our commitment to assisting clients with all types of transactions and ownership transition events,” says GBQ Capital Advisors director Brian Bornino. “GBQ Capital Advisors best represents who we are and what we do best – empower growth.”
