For those in M&A - what sort of multiples range would you put on a SaaS platform and associated professional service fees? I have heard anything from 5x-10x with adjustments for leadership, key man risk, market share, tech debt, and tech outlook.

My concern is the YOY growth (roughly 10% for the last 7 years) and margins (only 15-20% after extreme thinning of employee base) should be heavily considered.

Would love to get opinions on what to look for in DD.

Would you say most in-house roles tend to hire from BigLaw?

Considering obtaining a CFE certification. Can anyone share their experience vs experience obtaining CPA? I’m already a CPA. I just want a comparison of study time requirement and difficulty of exam.

Think I forgot to test an automated control...how screwed am I ?

Good morning to all those who are still in busy season for another few weeks. Go get'em!!

Is CMA worth getting after getting the CPA? Or is it better to get the CFA. Also don’t have much finance background so I don’t know if I can pass the CFA will require a lot of hard work. Interesting in hearing people’s thoughts.

I have no plans in leaving PA anytime soon but I figure maybe I should look into another certification that holds value and makes me more marketable compared to my peers. Appreciate any thoughts and advice.

- Also considering going to a t14 MBA in future.
