HOW IT WORKS

Watch our video to understand more about the ERC program and how we can help
your business.




ABOUT THE ERC PROGRAM


WHAT IS THE EMPLOYEE RETENTION CREDIT (ERC)?

ERC is a stimulus program designed to help those businesses that were able to
retain their employees during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Established by the CARES Act, it is a refundable tax credit – that you can claim
for your business. The ERC is available to both small and mid-sized businesses.
It is based on qualified wages and healthcare paid to employees.



UP TO $26,000 PER EMPLOYEE



AVAILABLE FOR 2020 AND THE FIRST 3 QUARTERS OF 2021



QUALIFY WITH DECREASED REVENUE OR COVID EVENT



NO LIMIT ON FUNDING



ERC IS A REFUNDABLE TAX CREDIT


HOW MUCH MONEY CAN YOU GET BACK?

You can claim up to $5,000 per employee for 2020. For 2021, the credit can be up
to $7,000 per employee per quarter.


HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOUR BUSINESS IS ELIGIBLE?

To qualify, your business must have been negatively impacted in either of the
following ways:



A GOVERNMENT AUTHORITY REQUIRED PARTIAL OR FULL SHUTDOWN OF YOUR BUSINESS DURING
2020 OR 2021. THIS INCLUDES YOUR OPERATIONS BEING LIMITED BY COMMERCE, INABILITY
TO TRAVEL OR RESTRICTIONS OF GROUP MEETINGS.



GROSS RECEIPT REDUCTION CRITERIA IS DIFFERENT FOR 2020 AND 2021, BUT IS MEASURED
AGAINST THE CURRENT QUARTER AS COMPARED TO 2019 PRE-COVID AMOUNTS.



A BUSINESS CAN BE ELIGIBLE FOR ONE QUARTER AND NOT ANOTHER.



INITIALLY, UNDER THE CARES ACT OF 2020, BUSINESSES WERE NOT ABLE TO QUALIFY FOR
THE ERC IF THEY HAD ALREADY RECEIVED A PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM (PPP) LOAN.
WITH NEW LEGISLATION IN 2021, EMPLOYERS ARE NOW ELIGIBLE FOR BOTH PROGRAMS. THE
ERC, THOUGH, CANNOT APPLY TO THE SAME WAGES AS THE ONES FOR PPP.




WHY US?

The ERC underwent several changes and has many technical details, including how
to determine qualified wages, which employees are eligible, and more. Your
business’ specific case might require more intensive review and analysis. The
program is complex and might leave you with many unanswered questions.

We can help make sense of it all. Our dedicated experts will guide you and
outline the steps you need to take so you can maximize the claim for your
business.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)

WHAT PERIOD DOES THE PROGRAM COVER?

The program began on March 13th, 2020 and ends on September 30, 2021, for
eligible employers.

You can apply for refunds for 2020 and 2021 after December 31st of this year,
into 2022 and 2023. And potentially beyond then too.

We have clients who received refunds only, and others that, in addition to
refunds, also qualified to continue receiving ERC in every payroll they process
through December 31, 2021, at about 30% of their payroll cost.

We have clients who have received refunds from $100,000 to $6 million.

DO WE STILL QUALIFY IF WE ALREADY TOOK THE PPP?

Yes. Under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, businesses can now qualify for
the ERC even if they already received a PPP loan. Note, though, that the ERC
will only apply to wages not used for the PPP.

DO WE STILL QUALIFY IF WE DID NOT INCUR A 20% DECLINE IN GROSS RECEIPTS?

Your business qualifies for the ERC, if it falls under one of the following:



   

 * A government authority required partial or full shutdown of your business
   during 2020 or 2021. This includes your operations being limited by commerce,
   inability to travel or restrictions of group meetings.
 * Gross receipt reduction criteria is different for 2020 and 2021, but is
   measured against the current quarter as compared to 2019 pre-COVID amounts.

DO WE STILL QUALIFY IF WE REMAINED OPEN DURING THE PANDEMIC?

Yes. To qualify, your business must meet either one of the following criteria:

 * Experienced a decline in gross receipts by 20%, or
 * Had to change business operations due to government orders

Many items are considered as changes in business operations, including shifts in
job roles and the purchase of extra protective equipment. The ERC, in this case,
also applies only for Q3 and Q4 of 2021. Businesses can qualify, regardless of
the number of full-time employees.

TESTIMONIALS

TED SHMIT, SR. DIRECTOR FINANCIAL SHARED SERVICES

GNC HOLDINGS, LLC

GNC started their partnership with Bottom Line Concepts in late 2019 with a
simple call from the CEO and founder of the company, Josh Fox. The staff at
Bottom Line Concepts made the contract and onboarding process easy. Since late
2019, Bottom Line Concepts has been able to recover a substantial amount of
unclaimed property for GNC. GNC continues to explore additional opportunities
with Bottom Line Concepts and I would like to thank them for their efforts and
great partnership.

MARC LASRY, OWNER

MILWAUKEE BUCKS

When my firm invests in companies, we do our best internally to help those
companies grow and become more profitable. We discovered that collaborating with
Bottom Line enhanced that process for us. Each dollar saved, allows us to show a
higher return to our investors over time. Bottom Line has worked with us on a
number of our portfolio companies, in addition to our own internal costs. We
continue to be impressed by the innovative ideas they share with us.

MARK W. GOLDBERG, CFO

ROLEX WATCH U.S.A.

We engaged Bottom Line Concepts to take an independent look at a few of our
expense categories. In certain areas, we were pleased with the steps we had
taken internally to achieve some level of cost savings on our own. In other
areas, Bottom Line Concepts opened our eyes to creative solutions we never could
have envisioned on our own. I would like to take this opportunity to recognize
the efforts, and more importantly the results obtained by Bottom Line Concepts
in working with Rolex. It is safe to say that their dedication, professionalism
and most importantly the results obtained exceeded our expectations.

DANIEL GRGORINIC, FINANCE & OPERATIONS DIRECTOR

AUDEMARS PIGUET

Bottom Line Concepts has been an amazing partner who has helped with cost
savings as well as tracking down funds which belong to us. Even with our
thorough review of vendors and relationships they have been able to shed light
in areas where we thought we could not improve any further. They have an
extremely professional and reliable team that is always ready to help. Looking
forward to building the relationship further and finding additional cost
savings.

TIM ZUE, CFO

BOSTON REDSOX

Bottom Line Concepts has been helping us identify cost savings in a number of
different areas and in a short amount of time has already identified six figure
savings. Their staff members have been great to work with and have made the
process seamless and easy, requiring only a limited amount of time and energy
from our internal staff to manage the process. They have been a great partner of
the Boston Red Sox and we are very pleased with their services.

TRAVIS MELLISH

The Government Programs that are part of the Cares Act can be very daunting and
confusing to understand. Our franchisees were getting a lot of mixed messages
and we were looking for a firm that could help educate them and guide them
through the process. Bottom Line was extremely patient and diligent working
individually with most of our franchisees to maximize their money during the
pandemic. They were a great partner and we look forward to a long-lasting
relationship.

DAVID BRANDON, CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD

DOMINO'S PIZZA, INC.

Bottom Line Concepts has terrific leadership and fulfills its promise to add
value by contributing to the bottom line of your organization. They promised us
positive results and delivered on their promise! There are very few no risk/all
reward opportunities available today in the business world. Bottom Line Concepts
offers such a proposition!

JOHN KENDRICK, CFO

NOBU RESTAURANTS

We have worked with Bottom Line on a number of savings and refunds projects.
Each of their programs required very little time and effort on our side, while
delivering great results. Their team has always been courteous and attentive to
our needs. Whenever we have needed something, they have gotten back to us right
away. After all these years of working with them, we’re happy that we hired
them.

KENNETH P. WEST, CFO

MARTHA STEWART LIVING OMNIMEDIA, INC.

We engaged the services of Bottom Line to assist us squeeze savings out of
certain expense items – and they were successful in areas where we had no such
awareness. While they scoured for additional savings opportunities, we initiated
a major restructuring – and Bottom Line was both flexible and understanding of
the impact that had on some of the savings’ opportunities that they were
approaching. I highly recommend their services.
