What is the U.S. federal income tax treatment of any distributions made by TE Connectivity plc?
For the information of U.S. shareholders, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of any distribution by TE Connectivity plc as a “dividend” depends on the application of U.S. federal income tax law. Although a determination cannot be made in advance, it is anticipated that distributions made by TE Connectivity plc will constitute “dividends” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and that they will be reported as such to the company's shareholders and to the IRS, in accordance with, and as required by, U.S. federal income tax laws.
TE Connectivity plc is a “qualified foreign corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, its dividends generally are eligible for “qualified dividend” treatment. Whether dividends paid by TE Connectivity plc in fact will constitute “qualified dividends” to any shareholder will depend on that shareholder’s specific circumstances, including the shareholder’s holding period for the TE Connectivity plc shares on which such dividends are received. (Qualified dividends are subject to the same maximum tax rates that apply to net capital gain – currently 0%, 15% and 20%. An additional 3.8% net investment income tax may also apply to shareholders with income above certain thresholds. In order to qualify for the capital gains rates, a shareholder must own the shares on which such dividends are received for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date.) U.S. shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisors concerning the treatment of dividends paid by TE Connectivity plc as “qualified dividends” in their particular circumstances.
To comply with requirements imposed by the IRS, we inform you that any U.S. federal tax advice contained herein, unless specifically stated otherwise, is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purposes of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or (ii) promoting, marketing, or recommending to another party any transaction or matter herein.
