June News To Know

Dear Clients & Friends,
Summer has officially begun, and with it comes a busy and exciting season here at CJBS. As we kick off June, we want to remind you about important upcoming deadlines.
Q2 estimated tax payments are due June 16, 2025. If you have already received your completed tax return, please refer to it for your estimated payment details, if applicable. Payments can be made electronically if you are not set up for auto debit. For our clients with returns on extension, our team will notify you directly if an estimated payment is needed.
In this edition, we’re sharing a recent client success: CJBS was able to help a fourth-generation insurance business overcome financial uncertainty and operational challenges. By providing strategic financial guidance and streamlining their accounting processes, we helped them regain control of their finances and rebuild confidence in their business decisions.
We’re also celebrating our summer promotions and sharing how our team is making the most of the season, from attending industry luncheons and enjoying team happy hours to playing in our Thursday softball league. Thank you for being a valued part of the CJBS community—wishing you a productive and enjoyable summer!
Upcoming Tax Deadlines
Below are due dates to keep in mind for the second half of 2025:

Summer Promotions
We are excited to announce the promotions of three outstanding team members. Ben Hicks has advanced to Senior Associate; he has brought in numerous new clients to the firm and is a great example of a young professional building his own book of business.
Barbara Lis has been promoted to Supervisor after a standout tax season, during which she billed the most hours on the team—kudos to her dedication and hard work.
Mitch Johnson has been promoted to Manager, where he will continue to leverage his extensive audit, assurance, and consulting expertise to benefit both our clients and our team. Congratulations to Ben, Barbara, and Mitch on these well-earned achievements!

Kicking Off Summer
This summer, our team has been enjoying a well-deserved break after a successful tax season. We kicked things off by celebrating the end of tax season with a lively company happy hour, giving everyone a chance to unwind together. Each Thursday, we keep the energy high with our company softball league, having fun in the sun while building camaraderie. We’re also honored to attend various banquets and luncheons throughout the season, strengthening relationships within our community
