During the past three years of working with Larry, his strategic guidance has been invaluable to our company, and he has positioned us for continued growth. For example, Larry created a detailed ROI analysis of all of our services, which helped us become more profitable. In addition, he completed financial models to assist us with capital equipment purchases.
Larry is always eager to help and support us, even when he’s not in the office. Larry's professionalism, strong business acumen, experience and connections in the financial community combined with his integrity, work ethic and attention to detail make him an outstanding partner. I am grateful to be able to work with him.

I have had the opportunity to work closely with Kim, and she has been outstanding in every respect. She has an exceptional command of financial data and a deep understanding of performance, budgeting, and operational efficiency. Kim consistently analyzes complex information, identifies opportunities, and implements strategies that directly improve profitability.
Through her work, she has played a key role in transforming my companies into more profitable, well-run operations. She is detail-oriented, dependable, and highly strategic, while also being collaborative and easy to work with across teams.
Kim is someone I trust with critical financial and operational matters. Her persistence, insight, and commitment have made her an invaluable partner, and she is now a top priority in my business. I would confidently recommend her to any organization seeking a knowledgeable, driven, and results-oriented professional.

Due to an unexpected medical situation, our CFO was going to miss 2 to 6 weeks of work - with little ability to communicate with us at all. We contacted Rankin McKenzie and within a couple of days met with Angie, and she felt like a perfect fit. She spent a few days with our CFO and quickly got up to speed. It was a great comfort having her take over the day to day finances for a couple of months until our CFO was able to return to work full-time.

Kathy Morris has worked with HexaTech for the past 13 years as a fractional CFO. Even though she worked part time over the years, she has always been a critical member of our management team, and a key contributor to HexaTech’s success. Kathy is dependable, responsive, extremely knowledgeable in all facets of accounting and finance, and most of all has been a pleasure to work with. When we were acquired by Stanley Electric in 2020, Kathy was our point person for all of the due diligence that was required. I can honestly say that without Kathy, this acquisition probably would not have happened. When we were asked by Stanley to hire a full time Accounting Manager, Kathy led the search, identified a great candidate which we hired, and then trained that individual to ensure a seamless transition. I would strongly recommend Kathy to any company looking for a part time CFO. Thank you to Rankin McKenzie for supporting HexaTech from its inception through its acquisition. Your support for the past 16 years has been critical to our success!

Jaye has made my life so much easier. Prior to coming in, I was trying to do the job of multiple people. She has taken so much off my plate, and I couldn’t be more grateful. She is very good at explaining to everyone exactly what she needs. We have a pretty tricky accounting system that we struggle to use. While I can tell it’s frustrating, she powers on and continues to successfully get the information she needs out of it. She has gotten our books straightened out and got us doing things we were never doing before. I appreciate her every day and am so glad we decided to go with Rankin McKenzie. Jaye is the perfect person for our business.

Tom’s expertise and thoughtful approach was key to driving our growth and professionalizing our organization. He helped us think about our business in ways we hadn’t previously and unlocked areas of investment we hadn’t contemplated. Further, Tom’s caring and professional approach has enabled us to navigate difficult choices with confidence and clarity. During our 5+ years of working with Tom, he has not only been a great advisor and CFO but has also grown into a professional friend as well.

Lisa has really helped get our business over the bump. Her experience in owning and operating a small business has been exceptionally valuable to our expansion. She has an excellent ability to understand the needs of the business owner and the direction they want to take their business. She is wonderful while training other employees and helping guide them during the learning process. She has made my life so much easier and can somehow even know what I am going to need before I even need it. I believe we are lucky to have her knowledge and expertise and am grateful to Rankin McKenzie for pairing us together.

Over the past few months, his contributions, especially during the due diligence and transition period, have been essential to our success. His professionalism, knowledge, and unwavering dedication made him an indispensable asset to our team. We can't recommend him and Rankin McKenzie highly enough!

She is a very detailed and accurate accountant and at the same time a very positive person. If ever the opportunity arose, I would have no hesitation in employing her again.

Our experience has been amazing with Anna. As a small, but growing, tech startup, using a fractional resource from Rankin McKenzie was a perfect fit for our size company. After hearing Anna's heart and past experience, I didn't hesitate to hire her. She truly listens, advises, and delivers on-time, quality work. As a female leader, I personally appreciate working with another female advisor that treats me as equal and does not talk down to me. Anna was able to help us "grow up" with our financial reporting, including switching over to GAAP reporting and assisting with the budgeting and planning processes. With Anna's help, our company is positioned for continued and sustained growth.

I first worked with John for nearly 15 years at my previous company, SCYNEXIS. In fact, John was the first full time finance employee, grew to become the Director of Finance, and helped take the company public in 2014 on the NASDAQ. Needless to say, it was a great experience for us all, and John was on the team that made it happen.
When I started a new company, Ribogenics, of course it made perfect sense for me to go back to John for Finance. He came the first day, and we were in business!
John is not only a great numbers guy; he also understands the Biotech ecosystem: investors both public and private, shareholders, partners, principal investigators, administrative support and scientists. He communicates easily with Board members and very quickly gained their trust. John also communicates well with scientists that may not have all the financial and operational knowledge required to build and grow a Biotech company. He is also very responsive in the demands of the stakeholders and good at prioritizing his job.
In a matter of 6 months, we put in place a complete team with the facility and raised $7M as seed money. I left the company at the end of 2021, but John stayed on to ensure that the evolution of Ribogenics was well managed.
Overall, when I have my next biotech project, I’m calling John!

What drew us to Rankin and McKenzie was the ability to onboard talent like Phil Sandy in a fractional model. As a small business owner, it is always challenging to time and deploy capital effectively for new hires, particularly those in overhead positions. The fractional model allowed us to interview and select a CFO well-versed in our industry, challenges, and financial model and ultimately swing way above our weight class.
When we chose Phil, we knew he would step in and drive improvements and process changes in our back office and finance department. What we didn’t expect was his ability to drive transformational changes across the entire business, even when outside the natural purview of a CFO. His impact has been immense and we know there is still untapped potential in the relationship that we intend to explore in the coming years.
