Workshop Session 3-B: Understanding M&A Tax Obligations
3:00 PM – 4:30 PM
When contemplating a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or divestiture (“M&A”) transaction, a structured, cohesive plan can assist employers in achieving desired outcomes. An important part of the planning process involves federal and state employment tax compliance requirements and integration of payroll systems.
Preparing for significant changes in an organization’s structure can be complex and time-consuming as employers must understand the multitude of applicable federal and state statutes specific to their type of transaction, along with making certain that employees are paid timely and accurately during the transition phase.
During this session, we will discuss:
- Types of Transactions (e.g., Stock, Asset, Merger, etc.)
- Compliance and Reporting Requirements
- Payroll Integration
- Unemployment Cost Management strategies
