From defense suppliers to specialty growers on the Oxnard Plain, Camarillo companies turn to PSG for disciplined bookkeeping and CFO insight that supports confident growth.
Camarillo lies in Ventura County between Oxnard and Thousand Oaks, surrounded by farmland on the Oxnard Plain and anchored by business parks along the freeway corridor. The local economy mixes agriculture and food processing with technology, aerospace and defense suppliers, biotech and professional services. California State University Channel Islands is based here, and a large outlet shopping center draws regional visitors. Small manufacturers, engineering consultancies and specialty growers make up much of the owner led business base.
Firms supplying defense and aerospace programs need disciplined contract accounting and clear cost tracking, while growers and food processors contend with seasonal revenue and labor swings. Tech and life science companies need investor ready financials and runway planning. PSG delivers accurate monthly closes, job and project costing, and fractional CFO support that helps Camarillo owners forecast cash, manage California payroll complexity and prepare for financing or growth.
California requires most LLCs and corporations to pay an annual minimum franchise tax, charges state sales and use tax through the CDTFA, and has strict payroll and wage rules. Several cities also impose their own business or gross receipts taxes.

Yes. We work with Camarillo companies through a dedicated team that is entirely US based, combining Big Four accounting experience with years of operating experience across industries. Your team closes the books on a regular schedule, works inside the accounting tools you already use and looks at your numbers the way an operator would, not just a bookkeeper.
Typically bank and card reconciliations, accounts payable and receivable, payroll support, California sales tax tracking and monthly financial statements you can act on. Growing companies can add fractional CFO support for forecasting, budgeting and cash planning.
Usually when decisions start to outgrow the books: raising capital or bank financing, opening a new location, making key hires, tightening margins or preparing for a future sale. A fractional CFO adds forecasting and strategic guidance without the cost of a full time executive.
We also work with businesses in Oxnard, Thousand Oaks, Simi Valley, San Buenaventura (Ventura) and Santa Clarita.

Hi! I'm Sam, a financial leader who's managed operations from startups to $40M enterprises.
I've led licensing deals with Disney, Marvel, and Viacom, while overseeing products across 35,000 retail stores. Through SHK Financial, I've helped 15+ high-growth companies succeed, including recovering $2M in receivables for a major client and rebuilding a $10M ARR company's accounting system in 6 months. Now, as Chief Accounting Officer at PSG, I oversee 50+ revenue streams and help launch many successful 8-figure businesses.
My journey started uniquely - while studying finance at Fresno State, I taught both chess and accounting to students, teaching me that success in finance, like in chess, is all about strategic thinking and seeing several moves ahead.
