Who we work with

Built for sponsors whose structures
outgrew ordinary bookkeeping

  • Reg D & private placement sponsors

    506(b) and 506(c) offerings with large accredited investor bases and ongoing reporting obligations.

  • Multi-LLC & SPV structures

    Co-issuing entities, series LLCs and project-level SPVs that each need their own books but report as one.

  • Real asset & infrastructure funds

    Data centers, digital infrastructure, energy and real estate portfolios spread across many locations and states.

  • Joint ventures & pooled programs

    Structures where profits are pooled across entities and shared under a defined waterfall.

  • Syndications & co-investments

    Class A / Class B membership structures with a managing member, reserves and promote economics.

  • International sponsors in the U.S.

    Foreign groups raising capital or operating through U.S. entity stacks. That's where IB.CPA started.

What we do

Set it up once. Run it every month.

We usually work in two phases: first we build the structure with management and counsel, then we run it every month for the life of the offering.

Phase I · Structure & set-up

Design it right before the first dollar moves

Completed before launch, alongside management and securities counsel.

  • Fund flow architecture

    Documented flow of investor capital, revenue, expenses and distributions through every layer of the structure.

  • Intercompany cost sharing

    Direct vs. shared cost definitions and an allocation basis you can defend, implemented in the ledger.

  • Distribution waterfall design

    Class A / Class B splits, reserves, trigger conditions, timing and sign-off workflow, aligned to the operating and JV agreements.

  • Multi-entity accounting set-up

    A standardized chart of accounts across every entity, vendor and bank integration, fixed-asset and depreciation policy, and capital accounts per investor.

  • Software selection & implementation

    Multi-entity GL evaluation, spend management, distribution-software integration and K-1 automation.

  • Registrations & compliance

    EINs, foreign qualifications, sales-tax nexus studies and registrations across every operating state.

Outcome: a documented structure, ready for its first close and first distribution.

Phase II · Ongoing operations

Run it the same way every month

Recurring accounting, reporting and tax for the full term of the offering.

  • Entity-level bookkeeping

    GAAP general ledgers, monthly P&L and quarterly balance sheets for each LLC.

  • Consolidated & variance reporting

    A monthly roll-up of all entities plus actual results vs. PPM projections for the manager and placement agent.

  • Investor distribution calculations

    Pooled net profit, waterfall allocation and per-investor amounts from the unit registry. We deliver payment files and reconcile them to the bank.

  • Investor reporting

    A standard monthly investor report: net profit, expenses, distribution per unit and reserve balance.

  • Schedule K-1s at scale

    Automated preparation and delivery of partnership returns and K-1s for tens of thousands of investors, plus handling of investor questions.

  • Audit & regulatory support

    Quarterly schedules, trial balances and workpapers for external PCAOB auditors, plus data for SEC and state filings.

Outcome: the same numbers for sponsors, investors and auditors, every period.

The monthly close

A repeatable close, set to your structure

Every structure is different. We build the close calendar around your governing documents and distribution dates, then run the same documented, multi-level review cycle every period.

Why IB.CPA

Independent numbers.
Consistent method. Built to scale.

Independent of the sponsor

We hold no interest in the entities we report on. Distribution amounts are calculated by us, separately from the manager, so investors know the numbers were not set by the people being paid.

One method across every entity

A single chart of accounts, allocation basis and report template across the whole structure. Entity #1 and entity #101 are handled exactly the same way.

Layered quality control

Automation does the volume. Dedicated preparers, reviewers and a second review sit on top, so calculations are checked before anything reaches an investor.

A tech stack built for volume

Multi-entity cloud ledgers, automated bank feeds, spend management and K-1 software integrated with professional tax platforms. No re-keying.

Multi-state & cross-border

Foreign qualifications, nexus analysis and state filings everywhere you operate, from a firm that has spent years guiding international companies through U.S. compliance.

We work with the whole deal team

Securities counsel, placement agents, transfer agents, investor-verification platforms and external auditors. We know what each needs and when.

FAQ

Common questions

When should we bring you in?

Before the offering documents are final. Fund flows, cost sharing and waterfalls are far easier to design right than to fix once distributions have started. We regularly work alongside securities counsel on the operating, purchase and JV agreements.

Can you take over a structure that's already running?

Yes. We start with a review of the existing books, allocations and distribution history, fix any inconsistencies, then move every entity onto one standard method before the next close.

Do you hold or move investor money?

No. We calculate distributions and prepare the payment files. Approval and payment stay with you and your bank, and we reconcile everything back to the bank statements each month.

Are you the auditor?

No. We're your outsourced accountant. We prepare the trial balances, schedules and workpapers your external audit firm needs each quarter and year-end, and coordinate with them directly.

How many entities and investors can you handle?

Our largest structure today covers more than 100 entities and 100,000+ investors on a monthly distribution cycle. Smaller structures, with a few SPVs and a few hundred investors, get the same methodology.

What do investors receive from you?

A standard periodic report showing net profit, expenses, distribution per unit and reserve balances, plus their Schedule K-1 each tax season. Investor questions are routed through the sponsor's designated contact.

Do you handle multi-state and sales-tax compliance?

Yes. We handle foreign qualifications, nexus studies, sales-tax registrations and state filings for every entity, in every state where you operate.

Which software do you use?

We pick the stack for each structure: multi-entity cloud ledgers, spend and bill-pay platforms, distribution tools and automated K-1 generation integrated with professional tax software. We can also work within systems you already have.

Can you also cover the manager and holding company?

Yes. We typically take on the managing member and parent company too, including bookkeeping, payroll, intercompany accounting and tax returns, so the whole structure reconciles in one place.

Do you work with international sponsors?

Yes, that's where IB.CPA started. We help foreign groups set up and run U.S. entity structures, with teams in the U.S. and Europe who speak the language of cross-border business.
