Net operating loss (NOL) occurs when a company's allowable deductions exceed its gross income in a tax period. A company can carry the NOL back to previous years or carry it forward as a net operating loss carryover (NOLCO) to offset future tax liabilities. NOLCO can be claimed by individuals, domestic/foreign corporations, and corporations with preferential tax rates. To deduct NOLCO, the business must maintain at least 75% ownership and it is only allowed against business income for the next 3 consecutive years. In a merger, the absorbed company's NOLCO cannot be transferred to the surviving company.
