Supreme Court Rules Utilities Can Claim U.S. Tax Credit on U.K. Windfall Tax, A Win For PPL Corp.-DJ
Dow Jones reported that the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that utility companies that paid a windfall tax in the United Kingdom can claim a foreign tax credit on their U.S. tax returns. The ruling was a win for PPL Corp, which sought a U.S. credit after U.K. authorities assessed a windfall tax of about $140 million on a utility PPL partially owned. The subsidiary was one of several regional utilities that had been privatized in the U.K. Amid public concern that the government sold the utilities too cheaply, Parliament enacted a one-time windfall tax on the companies in 1997. The U.S. Tax Court in 2010 sided with PPL in its dispute with the Internal Revenue Service, but Philadelphia's Third U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in 2011 overturned the decision and ruled for the government, finding the windfall tax was not creditable in the U.S. The Supreme Court, in an opinion by Justice Clarence Thomas, reversed the appeals-court decision and sided with the Company.
