Wednesday, August 13 | 8:00 - 9:00 AM CDT | 1.0 CPE

The newly enacted One Big Beautiful Act includes several Internal Revenue Code amendments that could significantly impact M&A transactions. Our Transaction Advisory Services team will walk you through what's changed, what's stayed put and where the planning opportunities could lie.

We'll cover the following topics (and more):

Section 1202 Capital Gain Exclusion: What's changed for QSBS and how it affects exit planning.
Bonus Depreciation and Section 179 Expensing: 100% bonus depreciation is back – what that means for asset-heavy deals and purchase price allocations.
SALT Deduction Expansion: A more generous cap and no restriction on PTET workarounds – good news for passthrough sellers.
R&E Cost Deductibility: Improved after-tax valuations for businesses with substantial R&E costs.
Interest Expense Limitations: A big win for leveraged acquisition structures.
