Cohen & Co acquires Gioffre & Company

Cohen & Co, a Cleveland-headquartered accounting and consulting firm, has acquired Gioffre & Company, a Westchester, NY-based accounting firm.

Gioffre & Company provides outsourced accounting, financial reporting, and tax services to public and large private company clients nationwide.

As part of the acquisition, founder Anthony Gioffre and a team of five professionals will join Cohen & Co. The Westchester office will expand Cohen & Co’s presence in the New York Tri-State region.

"Adding such a talented team will help us continue to enhance and expand our CFO support, financial reporting, and tax provision services, delivering tailored solutions to meet the needs of our clients and their investors," said Marcy Kempf, partner-in-charge, markets & industries, Cohen & Co.

The deal is Cohen & Co’s third acquisition this year, following Cleveland-based Tax & Wealth Management Inc. in January and Chicago-based Tassi and Company in March.

"We are excited for this new venture with Cohen & Co and chose this move with intention," said Gioffre. "Our goal is to provide enhanced service opportunities and bench strength to our long-standing clients and to offer longevity for our employees at a highly respected platform firm."

Cohen & Co received a strategic investment from private equity firm Lovell Minnick Partners in December 2024. As part of the transaction, Cohen & Co adopted an alternative practice structure and split its attest and non-attest services into separate entities.

It is the 42nd-largest CPA firm in the country, according to Inside Public Accounting, with annual revenue of $183.8 million. Cohen & Co has 800+ people across 15 offices.
