Acquisition Opportunity Fordham Goodfellow, LLP is being acquired by Kernutt Stokes LLP effective July 1, 2026. This integration may create a need for client transition services, integration of accounting platforms, and harmonization of tax and advisory offerings to maintain service continuity and cross-sell opportunities.

Growth Potential With revenue in the 10M-25M range and a regional footprint in Washington County and the Greater Portland area, there is potential to upsell premium advisory, outsourced CFO, and technology-enabled accounting services to mid-market clients seeking scale and modernization.

Tech Enablement Current tech stack includes WordPress, Shopify, Google Cloud, Microsoft 365, and hosting platforms. There is room to offer digital transformation services, ERP/CRM integrations, data analytics, and cybersecurity enhancements to improve efficiency for clients and attract tech-forward firms.

Market Positioning The firm operates in a competitive landscape with large firms like EY, Deloitte, KPMG, and others. Positioning opportunities exist in niche Portland-area industries, personalized partner-led service models, and scalable outsourcing for small-to-mid-size businesses seeking local expertise with regional reach.

Client Expansion Being a long-standing local firm, there is potential to package and market blended services (auditing, tax, assurance, and advisory) to attract growth-oriented clients, including family-owned businesses and startups, leveraging regional reputation and potential post-acquisition synergies.
