Madeline Stout is a finance and data analytics professional with over 15 years of experience helping businesses achieve clarity, control, and profitability. As the former founder of a successful Fractional CFO firm, she’s worked with companies across multiple industries to transform financial data into actionable business insights. With a background in accounting and data analytics, Madeline bridges the gap between numbers and strategy. 

Throughout her career, Madeline has seen how poor financial reporting and lack of visibility can lead to unfavorable outcomes during mergers and acquisitions. She understands that when financials aren’t accurate or presented strategically, companies risk leaving significant value on the table. By partnering with a trusted financial professional, businesses can position themselves for stronger negotiations, higher valuations, and ultimately, more successful exits.

Madeline is thrilled to be part of the team at Black Dog Financial, collaborating with other talented business professionals who share her dedication to helping companies thrive. She’s inspired by the firm’s innovative approach to financial strategy and enjoys contributing her expertise to a team that values excellence, transparency, and measurable results.

Based in the beautiful Coeur d’Alene, Idaho area, Madeline enjoys life with her husband, Drew, and their four children. When she’s not deep in dashboards or financial models, you can find her reading a good book, tackling a puzzle, or spending a sunny afternoon at the lake.
