ZH CPA

What ZH CPA does

ZH CPA, LLC is a private Certified Public Accounting firm headquartered in Denver, Colorado, that provides professional accounting, audit and assurance, tax advisory, and merger & acquisition services to publicly held and privately held companies. The firm is differentiated by a service model that pairs China-based professionals with deep SEC and PCAOB accounting standards expertise alongside U.S.-based industry specialists, allowing it to serve small-cap issuers with international (predominantly Chinese) backgrounds that are listed on NASDAQ, OTC, and Canadian exchanges. Its client roster includes 15+ named NASDAQ and OTC companies spanning education, gaming, logistics, apparel, consumer goods, healthcare, technology, and blockchain, as well as Canadian public companies and SPAC vehicles.

The firm operates through five fully owned offices in Denver (HQ), Irvine, Vancouver, Shanghai, and Chengdu, delivering engagements directly through partner-led teams. Service offerings are organized into four lines: Public Companies (IPO, RTO, SPAC advisory, US GAAP financial reporting), Audit & Assurance, Tax Advisory, and M&A. Supplementary services include financial and tax due diligence, tax planning, asset valuation, bookkeeping, and CFO/controller staffing. Marketing is conducted primarily through professional referrals and relationship management rather than paid channels, and the firm has visibility through events such as Nasdaq bell-ringing ceremonies with its clients.

The firm is structured as a U.S. LLC, is privately held with no disclosed external investors, and reports no funding rounds or M&A activity. Leadership comprises five named partners (Kevin Su, Helen Lu, Tracy Zhang, Jie Fang, and Mike Crown) holding multiple CPA, CA, and CFA credentials. Revenue, headcount, and pricing are not publicly disclosed, and the firm has not signaled any AI, automation, or proprietary technology platform; competitive advantage rests on cross-border talent and a global office footprint rather than technology differentiation.
