Financial Statement Audits

Proven Expertise, Timely Service

No matter why you need an audit — regulatory compliance, loan application, trustee/shareholder requirement, merger or other reason — YHB can meet your need, efficiently and reliably. We don’t just present an audit report. We explain what the numbers and findings mean, so you can use them to make better business decisions.

Not Your Typical Auditing Firm

In performing an audit, we make responsiveness a top priority. This means:

Flexible Scheduling Site Work

Target

We come out when it’s convenient for you and your staff, not just when it’s good for us. We also keep up with the latest in technology, meaning we can cut down onsite time. You can get back to focusing on your business!

Quick in Resolving Issues

Handshake

Because we’re organized on a community basis, our engagement managers have a lot of decision-making authority. If they encounter an issue they can’t handle, they can quickly consult our practice leaders for an answer.

Engagement Team Continuity

Business Consulting

Because our turnover is low, you’ll be served by many of the same professionals throughout an engagement and over the years. This means you won’t have to explain what your organization does to new staff each year.

But perhaps the most important reason to choose YHB is our deep and extensive industry experience. This enables us to bring our knowledge of best practices to bear on your needs. And that allows us to ask the right questions, provide insightful advice, and perform audits efficiently and cost-effectively.

Processes Designed for You

You are unique. That is why we customize the audit process to meet your needs and provide the highest standards for delivering audit services through strong planning and coordination between your team and YHB staff.   Our audit approach is risk-based and consists of four distinct phases:  planning, interim fieldwork, year-end fieldwork and completion. 

Proactive Communication & Responsiveness

As part of our standard audit process, we have continuous contact with your team to assure we are meeting all expectations and immediately address any concerns.  We believe regular and consistent communication drive success and use this as an advantage to ensuring lasting relationships. 

Our clients value our responsiveness.  We become trusted advisers that our clients know they can call any time to discuss urgent issues or to plan for upcoming standards.  We also strive to be proactive in sharing current information with our clients.  We reach out to our clients as soon as we learn of a new issue in the industry that may impact them.

Adapting to Remote Work

At YHB we understand the world is changing fast. Our team is uniquely positioned to handle some audits 100% remotely. Traditionally, audit fieldwork has involved a team of auditors camping out for weeks (or even months) in a conference room at the headquarters of the company being audited. Thanks to technological advances — including cloud storage, smart devices, teleconferencing, drones with cameras and secure data-sharing platforms — YHB has expanded our use of remote audit procedures. So no matter where your team is, we can make sure to complete your engagement in a timely and efficient manner.

Reliable & Quality Work The combination of our experience and knowledge of our clients along with cutting edge audit programs and policies, gives us a competitive advantage against smaller firms and the “Big 4.” Through our audit methodology and quality review procedures, we ensure our audits conform to all applicable standards.  We have procedures that address the nature, timing, extent and documentation of the engagement quality control review by the supervisor, manager, engagement partner and review partner. Additionally, we’re based in the communities we serve. So we’re not only more accessible than national firms with distant headquarters, we’re more responsive, too.
