Iselin-based EisnerAmper on Thursday said the partners and colleagues of Elgin, Illinois-based CPA firm Tighe, Kress & Orr P.C. are joining the firm in a combination expected to close in October.
Founded in 2007, and with offices in Chicago and Elgin, Illinois, TKO has five principals and approximately 100 colleagues. The firm provides tax, accounting, advisory and assurance services to startups through midmarket enterprises. Its diverse client base consists of individuals, companies, closely held businesses and nonprofit organizations.
“In addition to our expertise, integrity, responsiveness and personalized service, TKO helps make its clients informed decision-makers — which adds tremendous value,” Robert Tighe, TKO managing principal, said. “And we see these same qualities in EisnerAmper, which is why this move makes a lot of strategic sense.”
“TKO really gets it. They listen to clients, work with them on tailored solutions and strive for ongoing client growth,” Jay Weinstein, Eisner Advisory Group vice chair of industries and markets, said. “The professionals at TKO take a proactive, long-range approach, and those are the types of firms we want to team up with. We warmly welcome TKO to the EisnerAmper family.”
“EisnerAmper continues to combine with high-performing firms, and TKO is no exception. TKO has also become a destination for entrepreneurial talent,” Allan Koltin, CEO of Koltin Consulting Group, who advised on this deal, said. “And, while EisnerAmper continues to transform the profession, it has also found a way to keep a family-feel culture.”
