Overview of Tax Inversions SeptemberAugust 1, 2014 | Private Wealth Management Overview of Tax Inversions Tax Inversions have been in the headline lately as large US health care companies have turned to inversions to lower their tax bill and access cash held outside of the US. This is not a new phenomenon; in the last decade 47 corporations have moved overseas, but the uptick in announcements has garnered significant attention. We have recently gotten headlines of US companies like Medtronic (through a proposed acquisition of Covidien), AbbVie (through a proposed acquisition of Shire), and Mylan (through the proposed acquisition of Abbott’s ex-US generic business) pursuing inversions. Additionally Pfizer (with an attempted acquisition of AstraZeneca), Walgreens (speculated to be increasing ownership of Alliance Boots), and Hospira (speculated to acquire the medical nutrition business on Danone) have been rumored to go down this path. What is a tax inversion? When a US company purchases a foreign company and as long as the shareholders of the foreign company own 20 percent or more of the combined entity, a company in the United States can adopt a new homeland for tax purposes as part of the acquisition, in that way lowering its taxes and permitting it access to cash held abroad. As the Holder of the Acquiring Company’s Shares you should expect a Taxable Event. When you hold the stock of the company undergoing the inversion, the IRS is expected to treat the acquisition as a sale, requiring the holder to pay taxes on gains even though no shares have been sold. Under IRS rules, when a company moves abroad in a tax inversion, the buyer’s shareholders must pay capital gains if they will hold 50% or more of the shares (this is assumed to be the case with ABBV, MDT and MYL). The Federal Government is calling these Inversions un-American. The Senate Finance Committee held a hearing to discuss the current US international system of taxation. At the hearing, both Members and witnesses agreed that corporate inversions are largely problematic; however, they disagreed as to how they should be dealt with. Currently, it is unclear whether legislative proposals to halt inversion transactions could receive necessary bipartisan support. While Credit Suisse believes it is a possibility for Congress to craft a bipartisan amendment that could be attached to a funding bill or year-end tax deal, they still feel that the probability still remains less than 50% that Congress could pass something that halts inversion transactions by year’s end. Deal Specific AbbVie/Shire - ABBV reached an agreement to buy Shire, valued at $53.6B consisting of $41.78/share in cash and 0.896 ABBV shares for each SHPG share. Shire shareholders will own 25% of new ABBV, which will re-incorporate in the UK. ABBV believes it can lower its tax rate to 13% by 2016 from its current rate of 22%. The combined company will have sales of about $24B. ABBV agreed to a $1.6B breakup fee should the deal fall apart. ABBV expects the deal to close by the end of 2014. Holders of ABBV are expected to be taxed on the transaction, recognizing a gain on the date the deal closes. A new cost basis will then be established for the “new” ABBV shares. Medtronic/Covidien - In June MDT agreed to acquire Covidien for $42.9 billion or $93.22 a share, consisting of $35.19 in cash and 0.956 MDT shares for each COV share. The deal, subject to approvals, is expected to close in late 2014/early 2015. The combined companies will have revenue of about $27 billion. The deal is also being structured as a tax inversion with MDT forming a new company to be based in Ireland due to its lower corporate tax rate of 12.5% compared to the U.S. corporate tax rate of 35%. Holders of MDT are expected to be taxed on the transaction, recognizing a gain on the date the deal closes. A new cost basis will then be established for the “new” MDT shares. Robert W.

  • Local Businesses – Large and Small
    Local Businesses – Large and Small The details of the local businesses documented below have been researched by the Local History Group. Thomas Glover & Son Thomas Glover & Son, elastic web and fabric manufacturers appeared in the Post Office Directory for Nottinghamshire in 1855. The company is recorded as having several addresses in Nottingham, however it had disappeared from the directory by 1900, returning in 1925 described as a surgical hosier in Chesterfield Street, Carlton. The firm remained at that address until the 1970s. The company’s buildings were on both sides of Chesterfield Street but are now demolished, new houses being built on the side. Turney Brothers In 1861 two brothers, Edward and John Turney built a tannery and began to make leather on a site next to the River Trent and the adjacent canal in Nottingham, known as Sneinton Island. The first buildings took up only a fraction of the space that by the 1920s had developed into a large site with labour-saving machinery imported from many countries. They traded under the name of Turney Brothers and had offices in London, Leicester and Manchester. Edward left some years after the commencement of the company and the driving force was John Turney who was in sole charge for over a quarter of a century. In 1888 the company re-organised into a Limited Company, John being chairman. John led an exceptionally distinguished social, political and commercial life. He was a member of Nottingham Corporation for 46 years, and became Sheriff and then Alderman in 1879 and Mayor for two years 1886 – 1888.
