Pine Hill Group Appoints Daniel Rudio as Managing Director to Lead Firm’s Accounting Advisory Practice

PHILADELPHIA (July 10, 2018) Pine Hill Group, a leading accounting, financial reporting and transaction advisory firm, announced today that Daniel Rudio has joined the firm to lead its Accounting Advisory practice as Managing Director. Leveraging his extensive finance and client service background, Dan will lead a growing team of experienced, operationally-focused professionals to help clients address the effects that business decisions have on their accounting and financial reporting functions, including all aspects of financial statement preparation, audit readiness, technical accounting implementation, US GAAP convergence, and risk advisory services.

Dan brings to Pine Hill Group more than two decades of leadership experience in corporate finance, technical accounting, financial reporting, financial management, capital market transactions, due diligence and M&A support.

Prior to joining Pine Hill Group, Dan served in a number of progressive leadership positions of increasing responsibility.  Most recently, Dan was Senior Vice President, Controller and Chief Accounting Officer at Endo International, a $3 billion global life sciences company that develops and markets branded and generic pharmaceutical products. At Endo, Dan oversaw all aspects of the company’s accounting function during a time of significant organizational change and rapid growth. Over a 12-year span, Dan was instrumental in driving the company’s strategy by leading the accounting and reporting activities associated with over $20 billion in company acquisitions, and several multi-billion capital market transactions, including a $3 billion transformational acquisition resulting in Endo’s re-domiciling to Ireland.

Dan also held leadership roles with Rohm and Haas Company, a former Fortune 300 manufacturing company, including Financial Leader for the Americas and Technical Accounting Manager.  He began his career at Ernst & Young, where he was an Assurance Manager focused on clients in the pharmaceutical, real estate and retail industries.

“I am pleased to welcome Dan as a valuable new addition to the Pine Hill Group leadership team,” said Edward Sweeney, Managing Director and Chief Operating Officer at Pine Hill Group. “His extensive background in finance and accounting at premier life sciences and chemical companies coupled with his Big 4 accounting firm experience further enhances the depth of expertise that Pine Hill Group offers our clients, particularly on matters related to SEC compliance, technical accounting and M&A consulting. In addition to Dan’s leadership role heading up our Accounting Advisory practice, we are also thrilled to leverage his strong track record of building, managing and motivating teams to deliver results that will exceed the expectations of our clients.”
