The last two months of the year offer a valuable opportunity — not just to reflect on past performance, but to actively prepare your business for growth, compliance, and strategic change.

Reflect: Did Your Business Meet Expectations?
Ask yourself:

• Are we where we thought we’d be financially?
• Did we remain in good standing in our formation state?
• Are our legal documents accurate and up to date?
• Have we kept pace with any changes in compliance law?

If any of those questions raise concern, it may be time to take action.

Reset: Clean Up Loose Ends Before the Year Closes

Here are common actions we help clients with at year-end:

• Filing Annual Reports: Ensure your business remains active with your state.
• Amendments: Fix outdated records like business name, stock shares, or address changes.
• Dissolutions and Cancellations: If you’re winding down an entity, do it properly to avoid extra fees.

Plan Ahead: Consider Future Moves Now
Planning to grow next year? Incorporate a new business in a different state? Hire employees in a new jurisdiction? These changes may require a new foreign qualification, EIN, or updated corporate documents.

Wrapping up 2025 on a high note is about more than celebrating wins, it’s about being legally, operationally, and structurally ready for what’s next.
