Why does a 409a valuation matter?
To comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, private companies must have an independent valuation performed on the date of issuance of stock options and equity-based compensation to determine the FMV of the common stock. The rules and guidelines used in 409a valuation are developed per IRC section 409A.
Without knowing the fair market value, the firm and the stockholders might face substantial fines from the IRS if they offer or issue shares to service providers. The penalties for not getting a 409a valuation or getting it done incorrectly through any inexperienced 409a valuation providers that don’t follow approved IRS methods are:
- Heavy tax liabilities on total deferred compensation from all the years, including the current one
- Interest accrued on the adjusted tax liability
- An extra 20% tax on all deferred remuneration
