A share buyback is often (but not always) used during shareholder exits and is an effective way to extract cash from the company to realise the value of the shareholding or alternatively to return excess cash to a shareholder. Share buyback transactions can be highly tax-efficient but must comply with the strict provisions of Part 18 of the Companies Act 2006. Any breach of such provisions will result in the transaction being void which means it will be treated as it never happened i.e., the seller will be treated as if they continue to own the shares and the payment for the shares is liable to be returned to the company (which the company might find it difficult to recover). In addition, every officer of the company will commit a criminal offence. In other words, getting things wrong can have serious adverse legal and tax implications.

We offer specialist advice to start-ups, founders and angel investors on both equity and debt investments. There are a variety of ways for early-stage companies to structure their pre-seed and seed investments. In our experience, founders do not fully appreciate the importance of obtaining specialist legal advice in this area. We frequently hear from founders who, understandably, are afraid of incurring the expense of using specialist solicitors. While a cost-effective solution is a top priority at Birdi & Co Solicitors, we regard it as part of our duty to advise founders on the value in using solicitors who are familiar with fundraising transactions.
Litigation – as well as being expensive – can last for a long time; often many months and sometimes over a year or longer than that. The process is likely to require a significant input of your time and may have a dramatic impact on your daily life. If your case involves legal issues which are not clear-cut, we will carefully consider the legal merits of your case but there is no guarantee that a judge will arrive at the same or similar conclusion. This is an inherent characteristic of complex legal disputes.
