M&A Tax: Year-end planning considerations for compliance and provision

CPE 1.0

Webcast

Webcast overview

As the 2025 calendar year-end approaches, companies should start thinking about transactions that may have occurred during the year and the impact of those transactions on the 2025 tax provision as well as related compliance requirements. There are also items to keep in mind to assist in efficient tax planning for what 2026 may bring. 

Please join professionals from the KPMG M&A Tax and State and Local Tax practices, as they discuss: 

  • Distributions, including the determination of what portion of a distribution is treated as a dividend versus return of capital versus capital gain for U.S. federal as well as state income tax purposes.
  • Potential limitations on the ability to utilize tax attributes, including the Ownership Change rules under Section 382 and the rules under Section 384, which limit the use of preacquisition losses to offset built-in gains.
    • Considerations with respect to the changes to Section 174 as enacted by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and its impact on the net unrealized built-in gain/loss computations for Section 382 limitation calculations.  
  • Common tax considerations that arise in the context of a stock disposition as well as some of the more complex rules that may require further analysis when calculating stock basis.
