Can the sale of S Corporation stock be reported as an Installment sale?

PS13
Level 1

I have a client considering a sale of 100% of his S corporation stock.  A portion of sale proceeds would be paid to him in current year, with the balance paid over several years.

I read that stock reported on an exchange can't be reported as an installment sale, but could not find that Capital stock was excluded. I just wanted to be sure.  Thanks to all.

 Sales of nonpublicly traded stock can be reported on the installment method.

The more I know, the more I don't know.
