Abstract

Bloomberg Tax Portfolio, Corporate Acquisitions — (A), (B), and (C) Reorganizations, No. 771, discusses the requirements necessary to qualify a transaction as an “A” Reorganization, “B” Reorganization, “C” Reorganization, Forward Triangular Merger, or Reverse Triangular Merger. In addition to discussing the basic requirements, this Portfolio examines the consequences to the various parties involved in a reorganization, with an emphasis on practical problems and planning techniques.

Throughout this Portfolio, the relative advantages and disadvantages of the various types of acquisitive reorganization are compared. Through that comparison, along with an analysis of the particular facts, a practitioner should be able to make an informed judgment as to which, if any, type of acquisitive reorganization fits the circumstances of the parties.

For additional material with respect to the various means of effecting corporate acquisitions, see  770 T.M., Structuring Corporate Acquisitions — Tax Aspects.
