TEI Submits Comments on Notice 2023-2 and the Stock Repurchase Excise Tax

On March 20, 2023, TEI submitted comments in response to a request for comments in Notice 2023-2, which provided guidance on the stock repurchase excise tax. The comments requested carve-outs from the tax for redemptions of non-participating, non-convertible preferred stock and addressed the funding rule and related per se rule that were introduced in the notice. In particular, the comments requested either the removal of the rules from future guidance or a significant narrowing of the rules as they are overbroad and go beyond the literal language and purposes of the statute.
