Brian Grant

Principal & M&A Lead


Brian possesses three decades of experience in CFO and leadership roles, establishing himself as a seasoned financial consultant and M&A advisor. He has a diverse background in public and private accounting spanning a wide-range of industries including manufacturing, distribution, construction, technology, software, utilities, and medical supplies.

Before joining Turning Point, Brian practiced public accounting most recently as an assurance Partner at a prominent West-Coast regional CPA and consulting firm for nearly 13 years. During this time, he worked primarily with middle market companies where he focused on M&A, GAAP financial reporting, operational analysis, business planning, financial forecasting, transaction evaluation, and investor relations.   

At Turning Point, Brian directs his focus towards the firm’s mergers and acquisitions practice, consulting on both buy-side and sell-side transactions. While the primary emphasis lies in delivering quality earnings reporting, Brian and the Turning Point team bring a wealth of experience supporting all financial aspects of a transaction, includes strategic financial projections, working capital analysis, and consulting on the financial aspects of asset purchase agreements.

Beyond his professional pursuits, Brian enjoys spending quality time with his wife and three grown sons. His interests include golf, travel, music, water sports, and relaxing at home on their acreage in Sherwood, Oregon.

  • "To have a team that has built a robust model, has done the work, and can speak eloquently and intelligently to investors is pretty solid. I shudder thinking of where I would be without the Turning Point team."

    — Max Baker, Founder & CEO of ILLUMAGEAR

  • “Working with Turning Point was transformational for Wimmer Solutions. They went beyond the numbers to create a mind shift change and, as a result, our finance function is not as fragile as it was. The Turning Point team was driven by data, quickly understood the personalities involved, and created accountability to get us to a significantly better place financially. They instilled confidence immediately and have remained trusted advisors.”

    — Matt Sauri, Wimmer Solutions

  • “As a company, we were at a crossroads when we hired Turning Point. We had grown beyond our ability to control operational efficiency but didn’t have the resources to hire a full-time CFO. Revenues were up but the additional business was not growing our bottom line. We did not have the in-house expertise to manage the complexities brought on by our growth. We did not have a financial reporting system capable of helping us pinpoint our problems.”

    — Dean E. Wilson, CEO, King-Electric
