Synopsis

How federal taxes shape mergers and acquisitions—and what that means for deals.

  • Key tax rules that affect the form and substance of merger activity
  • How debt versus equity financing changes after‑tax returns and deal pricing
  • Consolidated returns, NOL carryovers, and the impact on post‑acquisition losses
  • Options like section 338 asset step-ups, built‑in losses, and limitations on tax attributes
