2 Tips in Successfully Merging a Corporation
| | |
As mentioned in last month's newsletter, Registered Agent Solutions, inc. is featuring Mario Flores, Attorney at Law in a series of articles. This month, Mario will be discussing Mergers. As a licensed attorney, Mario focuses on multiple areas of practice including Business Law. Below is this month's featured article.
2 Tips in Successfully Merging a Corporation
There are many factors to bear in mind when merging a corporation, the two most important components to consider are tax implications and assessing the tax liabilities. It depends on what type of acquisition you are doing whether it is an asset purchase or a stock purchase of the new corporation when merging it.
When performing an asset purchase, typically you do not have to worry as much about the liabilities; however, in some instances, you may want to keep the name of the company and that would be considered a stock purchase. Obtaining the good will of a company would also be regarded as a stock purchase. The challenge with that is there are many unknown liabilities for the new person acquiring or merging the corporations.
Overall, it's extremely crucial to have a good understanding of what liabilities might exist and the tax implications.
