    Stock Repurchase
    If the shareholders of a small corp (less than $1 MM in sales) want to take out excess capital, can they do it as a stock repurchase by the Corporation at par (same price as issue price) ? Any tax rules and regulations that need to be taken care of ?Thanks.

    This is NOT a tax question, but rather a question about either a SEC regulation or investment law.

    Recommend you post it in LAW Forum.

    A stock repurchase in a closely held corporation is likely to be treated as a dividend. See Code § 302(b).
