“Choosing him as my broker was one of the best decisions I have ever made. His mission was accomplished, and now my family’s 60-year-old publication is in the capable hands of a young and enthusiastic new owner.”

In today’s rapidly shifting media landscape, one question is becoming increasingly urgent for publishers, owners, and investors alike: What is my business actually worth?
For Kamen & Co Group Services, LLC, that question has been at the center of its work for nearly five decades. On March 17, 2026, the Long Island-based firm marked 47 years of advising media, entertainment, and technology companies on valuation, transactions, and long-term financial strategy.
But according to founder and CEO Kevin B. Kamen, the stakes have never been higher.
“It has been an exceptionally rewarding time working closely with publishing, film, and technology executives from across the globe for nearly fifty years,” Kamen said. “But what’s changed is the level of uncertainty in the market. Today, understanding your company’s true financial position isn’t optional—it’s essential.”
Valuation in a time of disruption
From legacy print operations to digital-first platforms, media companies are navigating a landscape shaped by consolidation, evolving revenue models, and shifting audience behavior. In that environment, accurate, independent valuation is no longer just a step in a sale—it’s a strategic tool.
Kamen & Co has built its reputation on delivering deep financial analysis across hundreds of media and entertainment organizations, helping owners understand not only what their businesses are worth, but how to improve that value.
“The thrust of our work has always been to independently and honestly determine the current financial valuation and overall business status of each organization,” Kamen explained. “But equally important is what comes next—providing recommendations that help generate stronger margins and long-term growth.”
From valuation to transition
That insight often becomes most critical during ownership transitions.
Adrienne Haddad, former owner and publisher of Truck ’N Trailer Magazine, turned to Kamen & Co when it came time to sell her family’s long-standing publication.
“Kevin Kamen is a rock star,” Haddad said. “Choosing him as my broker was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Kevin always remained focused on finding the perfect buyer. His mission was accomplished, and now my family’s 60-year-old publication is in the capable hands of a young and enthusiastic new owner.”
For Kamen, those outcomes are the real measure of success.
“Every business has a story,” he said. “Our role is to understand that story, quantify it, and help owners make the right decisions for what comes next.”
A global perspective on media value
Today, Kamen & Co operates from offices in Long Island and Tampa, serving clients across publishing, digital media, technology, and entertainment sectors worldwide.
Kamen’s expertise has also extended into high-profile financial analysis, including serving as a valuation advisor to Forbes reporters for more than a decade, contributing to rankings such as the Forbes 400 and the World’s Billionaires list.
That experience, he said, reinforces a simple principle that applies to organizations of every size.
“Whether you’re a global media brand or a local publisher, understanding your financial position gives you power,” Kamen said. “It allows you to plan, to grow, and—when the time comes—to transition with confidence.”
Looking ahead
As Kamen & Co enters its 48th year, the firm expects continued demand for its services as media companies reassess their strategies in an evolving market.
“We’ve been fortunate to have a steady flow of work and long-standing relationships,” Kamen said. “And we expect that to continue as more organizations recognize the importance of knowing where they stand—and where they can go.”
For publishers navigating uncertainty, that clarity may be more valuable than ever.
