By a unanimous 9-0 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a federal appeals court ruling on that had denied PPL's claim of a credit against its U.S. income taxes for a "windfall tax" paid to the government of the United Kingdom. In the decision, the Supreme Court ruled that "the economic substance of the U.K. windfall tax is that of a U.S. income tax ... therefore the tax is creditable... We agree with PPL and conclude that the predominant character of the windfall tax is that of an excess profits tax, a category of income tax in the U.S. sense," the court wrote in its opinion. "The U.S. tax code allows companies to claim a credit for payment of foreign taxes that are similar in substance to U.S. income taxes. We have held throughout the process that because the U.K. windfall tax was based on income, it should therefore be creditable against our U.S. income taxes. We are pleased not only that the Supreme Court agreed, but that the agreement was unanimous," said Robert Grey, PPL executive vice president, general counsel and secretary. | | | 12:59 EDT | | PPL | Ruling on PPL may have positive read-through for other utilities, Reuters says
The Supreme Court ruled PPL (PPL) can claim $39M in U.S. foreign tax credits against a 1997 British windfall tax and other utility companies, like Entergy (ETR) and American Electric Power (AEP), are in the same position, having been hit by the windfall tax after they acquired British utility companies that were later privatized, reported Reuters.
