Started in 2018, corvalenith emerged from a simple observation—too many capable business owners were making decisions without clear financial visibility. Not because they lacked intelligence, but because profitability analysis had become unnecessarily complicated.
We've worked with over 140 businesses across manufacturing, retail, and service sectors. Our focus remains consistent: translating financial complexity into actionable intelligence that business owners can actually use.
What began as weekend consulting work has evolved into a dedicated practice. Here's how we got here.
Started analyzing profit margins for three local manufacturers who were growing revenue but somehow losing money. Turned out their product mix had shifted without anyone noticing the margin impact. That pattern kept repeating across different industries.
When disruption hit, businesses needed clarity fast. We developed rapid assessment frameworks that could identify profit leaks within days rather than weeks. Some clients used our analysis to make difficult but necessary decisions about product lines and staffing.
Brought on specialized expertise in cost allocation and activity-based costing. This allowed us to work with more complex operations where traditional accounting wasn't revealing the real profitability picture. A furniture manufacturer discovered their custom work was actually subsidizing their standard line.
We're working with businesses that have reached that frustrating stage—decent revenue, exhausted owners, but unclear whether they're building wealth or just staying busy. Our analysis helps them see which customers, products, and activities actually contribute to their financial goals.
We're a small team with complementary skills. No massive hierarchy or account managers who disappear after the sales pitch. When you work with corvalenith, you work directly with the people doing the analysis.
Spent twelve years in corporate finance before realizing most small businesses were asking better questions than large ones. Specializes in turning messy financial data into clear profitability insights. Still drinks too much coffee.
Background in manufacturing operations and process improvement. Focuses on the operational side of profitability—where time and resources actually go versus where systems say they go. Has strong opinions about spreadsheet organization.
We don't have a proprietary system or secret methodology. Our work is built on established financial analysis principles, applied with common sense and adjusted for the reality that most businesses don't have perfect data or unlimited time.
The goal isn't to produce a beautiful report that sits on a shelf. It's to help you see patterns in your business that aren't obvious from monthly P&L statements—and to do it in a timeframe that's actually useful for decision-making.
If you're generating revenue but struggling to see clear profit patterns, or if you suspect some parts of your business are subsidizing others, let's talk. First conversation is straightforward—we'll discuss what you're seeing in your business and whether our analysis approach makes sense for your situation.
