Tax operating map

MMVFO turns disconnected tax, filing, controversy, international, risk, and advisor inputs into one operating view.

Equity and entity history

Map founder shares, option exercises, grants, conversions, restructurings, redemptions, secondary sales, and entity changes that may affect tax treatment.

QSBS and state posture

Review QSBS signals, holding period, issuer status, gross asset questions, state residency, domicile moves, and state conformity questions before deal documents are final.

R&D and compliance support

Founder exits often surface R&D credit files, sales tax, employment-tax records, international reporting, K-1 timing, and historical return support that should be triaged early.

Estate and charitable timing

Coordinate gift planning, trusts, appraisals, charitable structures, estate liquidity, and advisor roles before valuation, deal certainty, and closing dates narrow the options.

Scope and professional boundaries

FAQs
