Tax Credits & Incentives

Many businesses miss out on valuable tax savings simply because they aren’t aware of the incentives that are available or don’t have the time or resources to pursue them. Tax credits and incentives can reduce your tax burden, improve cash flow and free up capital for strategic reinvestment. These programs benefit companies across a wide range of industries, including energy, technology, life sciences, financial services, food and beverage, government contracting, manufacturing and more. Weaver’s tax credits and incentives services can help qualified businesses uncover opportunities to minimize tax liabilities and reinvest in what’s next.

Benefits and uses of tax credits and incentives

Tax credits and incentives are essential to a company’s long term financial strategy. These powerful tools can help businesses ease tax liabilities, offset business expenses and advance growth. When leveraged strategically, these programs can accelerate transformation, support long-term investment and add up to meaningful money-saving opportunities for your organization.

Federal, state and local governments offer tax credits and incentives to:

Encourage research, development and technological innovation
Stimulate job creation and workforce development
Promote sustainability through clean energy and efficiency initiatives
Support business expansion and relocation
Offset investments in infrastructure, property and capital equipment

Determining eligibility and understanding the application processes require insight into how these programs align with your operations and goals. Weaver helps clarify the process, guiding you through every step to capitalize on potential value.

Unlock opportunities with tax credits and incentives

Valuable business tax credits and incentives often go unclaimed. Businesses may not know where to look, what’s available or how to apply. That’s where Weaver comes in. We can help identify, evaluate and capture meaningful incentives that align with your organization’s priorities.

These incentives may apply to:

Research and development (R&D): Tax credits for qualified research expenses, including new product development, process improvements and software innovation
Capital investment: Credits that reward investment in equipment, infrastructure or relocation to designated incentive zones
State and local incentives: Location-based incentives that influence site selection, expansion or regional economic development goals
Sustainability and energy projects: Incentives for clean energy adoption, including solar, wind and efficiency upgrades
Job creation and training: Credits for hiring, retaining or training employees in specific regions or populations
Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC): For a limited time until December 31, 2025, employers who hire individuals from certain targeted groups, such as veterans or those facing employment barriers, may be eligible for a federal tax credit. To claim the WOTC, employers must submit required documentation and receive state certification. Weaver helps clients assess eligibility, analyze qualified wages under IRC Section 51 and maintain compliance with ongoing filing requirements.

Weaver works with clients to pursue both well-known and underutilized incentives, aiming to make the most out of the return on qualifying investments.
