Jim Boyd is a qualified financial expert with 20 years of experience as CFO of public companies and four years as CFO of private companies where he headed the financial function, investor relations, and audit committee operations. As a close confidant and partner of the CEO and board, he is known for his business acumen and critical decision-making abilities. Jim is considered an internal controls and SEC reporting expert. He has led 404 multi-million-dollar control implementations at several companies and restatements at two companies, each of which took years to complete, and involved the management and coordination of three Big 4 CPA firms and two major law firms including testifying before the SEC and NASDAQ.
He is also an expert at budgeting, planning, M&A, and financing. He has managed $400M in revenue and companies with 750 employees and valuations of $2B as well as turnarounds, restructurings, and recapitalizations that reduced headcount and operating expenses by as much as half and placed them back on a growth trajectory. Jim has completed over $4B in transactions including public offerings, PIPEs, CMPOs, debt to equity restructurings, warrant restructurings, promissory notes, government guaranteed loans, licenses, and leases.
Finally, he has broad international experience including the launches and closings of international locations, and the management of global tax structures at four companies with operations in Asia, Europe, and North and South America—one of which achieved a 3% worldwide effective tax rate for several years.
Jim’s deep senior-level executive experience, leadership presence under pressure, critical decision-making capabilities, and ability to effectively mentor management will help his clients achieve high growth while effectively and quickly dealing with today’s complex and interdependent issues.
