Договорът между съоснователите: Парични въпроси, които да уредите, преди да се премести първият долар

Selling Your Business to Your Employees: What the New SBA Worker Cooperative Lending Pilot Means for Retiring Owners

Six million U.S. businesses are expected to change hands by 2035, yet over 58% of owners have no succession plan. The National Worker Cooperative Development and Support Act, reintroduced in December 2025, would create an SBA pilot guaranteeing $60 million in loans over ten years for worker cooperative conversions — solving the 20%-owner personal guarantee problem that blocks most co-op financing. Here's how the pilot, Section 1042 capital gains deferral, and clean bookkeeping fit into an employee-ownership exit.

FASB's ASU 2025-12 (Issue 10) codifies a third method for retiring repurchased shares — charging the full excess over par value to additional paid-in capital, as long as APIC stays non-negative. Here is how the APIC-only, retained-earnings-only, and allocation methods change the balance-sheet impact of a co-founder buyout, and why the choice matters for loan covenants and dividend capacity before the December 15, 2026 effective date.

Employee Ownership Trusts: The Succession Planning Alternative Between Selling to a Stranger and Doing Nothing

An Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) lets a business owner sell to a permanent employee-benefit trust instead of a competitor or private equity firm, costing roughly $30,000-$100,000 to set up versus $150,000+ for an ESOP, though the U.S. still offers no federal tax incentive for EOT sales while Canada made its C$10 million capital gains exemption permanent in June 2026.
