1. What Is A "Spin-Off"?

In a "spin-off," a parent company distributes shares of a
subsidiary to the parent company's shareholders
.


What is the 355 spin-off rule?
Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) provides an exemption to these distribution rules, allowing a corporation to spin off or distribute shares of a subsidiary in a transaction that is tax-free to both shareholders and the parent company.
