Corporation Tax
Your corporate tax needs will range from routine annual compliance to specialist advice in planning and supporting your business strategies and transactions, varying according to your particular sector and business circumstances.
We can help you plan a tax-efficient approach to every aspect of your business, one that sees the whole picture and works with you to protect the interests of your stakeholders.
We cover all matters related to compliance, transaction support and planning issues of a company. We have extensive experience in handling all types of communications and negotiations with HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC).
Our experience of providing corporate tax advice covers a vast range of specialist areas and transactions which include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Group restructuring - splitting a company's business units into separate companies, distributing shares in subsidiaries to the parent company's shareholders, hive-up of assets from subsidiary companies, including obtaining advanced clearance/approval from HMRC where necessary.
- Due diligence - advising on tax issues in relation to acquisitions/disposals, including advice in relation to the Share Purchase Agreement and tax-efficient structuring once the transaction has been completed.
- EIS relief - advising on the optimal structure of proposed investments, obtaining prior HMRC clearance/approval on the EIS investment and dealing with all necessary paperwork to provide investors with their EIS certificates.
- EMI schemes - advising on the possible structure of reward schemes for clients, ensuring that schemes meet the conditions to qualify under EMI, agreeing valuations with HMRC and ensuring ongoing compliance with the EMI scheme rules.
