Business and tax consulting

The questions that do not fit in a monthly report: should there be a holding company, what should I take as salary, what does this acquisition really cost, and what happens to the tax if we grow twice as fast.

Advisory

An adviser who already knows your numbers

Most advice fails not because it is wrong, but because the adviser only sees a slide of the business. Ours starts from your actual ledger — we already know the margins, the cash pattern and the owner's situation before the meeting begins.

We work on structure, tax and financial decisions for Norwegian SMEs: holding structures, dividend and salary optimisation, incentive schemes, financing, buying or selling a company, and the day-to-day questions that are too specific for a search engine.

What the service includes

  • Company structure — holding company, group contribution, demerger, restructuring
  • Salary vs. dividend optimisation for owners, with the shielding deduction calculated
  • Tax planning within the rules: timing, provisions, depreciation and loss carry-forward
  • Employee incentives, share options and bonus schemes
  • Financing: bank documentation, Innovation Norway applications, investor material
  • Transactions: valuation support, financial due diligence and post-deal integration
  • Ongoing advisory retainer — a named adviser you can simply call

FAQ

Questions we get about business and tax consulting

It depends on whether you plan to sell, whether you want to build capital outside the operating risk, and how much profit is actually left after salary. Under the Norwegian exemption method, dividends between companies are largely tax-free, which makes a holding structure attractive for many owners — but it adds administration and it must be established before a sale is on the table, not after. We run the numbers for your case.

Yes. We prepare the financial part — historical figures, budget, forecast and the assumptions behind them — in the format the counterparty expects. We do not write the whole application for you, but we make sure the numbers hold up when they are challenged.

On the financial side: a due diligence of their accounts, a valuation range, the working capital mechanism, and how the acquisition should be structured and financed. We work alongside your lawyer, who handles the agreement itself.

No, advisory engagements are available on their own. It is simply faster and cheaper when we already have the ledger, because there is no start-up cost to understand the business.
