Case | HBS Case Collection | 2007 (Revised from original 2005 version)
by Henry B. Reiling
Two underperforming companies are seeking to combine on terms that will preserve the net operating loss of one for use against their combined future profits or at least against the future profits of the company that generated the losses. The questions are whether the proposed plan of combination will accomplish these objectives and where there are alternative structures that would improve upon the proposed plan.
