Episode 4: Navigating the complexities of tax compliance during a business exit is a critical aspect that demands careful attention.
What do we need to consider?
In this conversation of the Exit Planning Toolkit miniseries, Marc Campbell and Chris Girbés chat with Louis Hamel, Partner at HW LLP, about the tax considerations to keep in mind during a business exit. They delve into the potential risks of tax compliance issues, particularly at the state and local level, and how they can impact a transaction.
Additionally, they touch on Qualified Small Business Stocks (QSBS) and everything you need to know about moving to a state with lower income taxes.
They discuss:
- The need for founders and c-suite entrepreneurs to be proactive in addressing state and local tax compliance issues
- All things QSBS and its overlooked benefits (and exemptions) in the tax code
- The Section 1045 rollover
- The value of assembling a team and strategically positioning oneself for the best long-term results
- When it makes sense to move to a state with no income taxes and the implications of such a move
- The concepts of residency and domicile for tax purposes
- And more!
