Tax Tip: Two Special Stock Rules—Section 1202 and Section 1244 Stock Market Graphs

For owners, investors, and founders of small businesses, two federal tax rules can make a meaningful difference when stock is sold or becomes worthless: Section 1202 qualified small business stock and Section 1244 small business stock.

They serve different purposes:

Section 1202 can provide a substantial tax benefit when qualifying stock is sold at a gain.

Section 1244 can provide more favorable tax treatment when qualifying stock is sold at a loss.

These rules apply to stock in corporations—not partnership interests or LLC membership interests unless the LLC has elected to be taxed as a C corporation.

Running a service-based business requires staying ahead of constant regulatory shifts. We want to make sure you are prepared for a change regarding meal deductions.

Starting January 1, 2026, expenses for employer-operated eating facilities and meals provided for the convenience of the employer will become fully nondeductible under IRC Section 274. This applies to all taxpayers, regardless of their fiscal year, as the disallowance is based on when the expense is paid or incurred. This change could impact your bottom line if your current meal policies are not reviewed proactively.

Our team is here to help you navigate these shifts with clarity.

Benefits of proactive planning:
✅ Accurate tax projections
✅ Adjusted expense tracking
✅ Informed financial decisions

Pros and Cons:
✅ Pro: Avoid unexpected tax liabilities
❌ Con: Requires early adjustments to meal policies

We recommend reviewing your current employee meal structures now to minimize stress when the new rules take effect.

Keeping your business audit-proof starts with good habits, and one small change in 2026 just made that easier.

Beginning with calendar year 2026, the federal reporting threshold for Form 1099-NEC rises from $600 to $2,000. While that means less paperwork for smaller payments, we still recommend issuing a 1099 whenever you pay an independent contractor—regardless of the amount.

Why? Because documenting every payment makes those expenses essentially audit-proof. If the IRS ever questions a deduction, a filed 1099 is your cleanest proof.

✅ Issue 1099s for all contractor payments, even under the new limit.
✅ Keep vendor W-9s on file before you pay them.
✅ Let our team handle the filing so nothing slips through.

A simpler process today means less stress tomorrow. We’re here to keep you compliant and confident.

A heads-up for restaurant owners and anyone with an in-house employee café: starting January 1, 2026, the costs of employer-operated eating facilities and meals provided for your convenience will no longer be deductible under IRC Section 274(o).

Pros of acting now:
✅ You still have time to review current meal policies and tax strategies.
✅ Planning ahead can help you adjust budgets and avoid surprises.
Cons of waiting:
❌ Losing this deduction could directly hit your bottom line.
❌ Retroactive fixes won't be available once the rule takes effect.

How to prepare:
➡️ Review how meals and on-site facilities are currently classified.
➡️ Calculate the potential financial impact on your 2026 projections.
➡️ Talk with your accountant about alternative approaches that may remain eligible.

We're here to help you sort through what this means for your specific operation. No jargon, just practical guidance so you can plan with confidence.
