Description
A bankruptcy reorganization or out-of-court restructuring can significantly impact tax attributes such as NOLS and basis. The existence of and ability to use such attributes after a reorganization or restructuring often affects value. Two common issues must be considered with regard to a transaction’s impact on such items: the reduction of tax attributes and limitations on the ability to use tax attributes. The topics addressing absorption of tax attributes include discharge of indebtedness income, attribute reduction, stock-for-debt exchanges, debt modifications and elections. The loss-limitation overview includes a look at § 382, special bankruptcy § 382 rules and trading restrictions.
