1. A communications company was considering acquiring a smaller company overseas that had an illicit reputation. The team at Kessler International was called in to conduct a background investigation of the company and document liabilities. The researchers and investigators identified the major stockholders in the company and looked into their legal history. They also reviewed the company's reputation and their financial history and found the company had exaggerated about their earnings and clientele list. The communications company went ahead with the deal, knowing exactly what they were getting themselves into.
2. A major technology developer requested us to audit their royalty payments. A routine audit had not been conducted in two years. Upon requesting the financial records that were supposed to be supporting the payment our client received, we uncovered the payments were not based on revenues as mandated by the contract, but rather by liberal estimates in favor of the licensee. Further review disclosed that much of the royalties to be paid for overseas use were never reported. Over a few million dollars were recovered for our client.
