Over the past few months, The ESOP Association has been conducting an expansive market research study looking into attitudes toward ESOPs and employee ownership. Our goal for this ambitious project is to help ESOPs and professional service providers gain an edge in both internal and external communications through data-driven messaging that resonates with target audiences. We are just now starting to receive and analyze the results from this first-of-its-kind study, and we will release the initial findings and key takeaways at next week’s National Conference in Washington, DC.

The Pennsylvania State house has passed HB 285 which would permit the deferral of taxation on a lump-sum distribution from Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOP). The legislation, sponsored by Rep. Daryl Metcalfe (R-Butler), puts the state on par with the rest of the nation and allows certain business owners who sell stock to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) to defer capital gains taxes collected at the sale of the business.

After several days of debate, Senate Republicans have offered their version of the “Phase Four” economic stimulus and COVID recovery bill. Of particular note to those in the ESOP community, this package of bills does not yet include S. 4236—the bill introduced by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) that would offer grants to companies that create or expand an ESOP.
The package is a first draft and will likely change significantly as both parties work to hammer out an agreement. As currently written, this group of bills would offer the following items.
