I have a C-corp with a fiscal year ending 10/31 that is going to be doing a spin off to separate a portion of his business. My question is this....can the new entity have a different year end than the parent company? He would like to put the new entity on a calendar year end. I have done tons of research but cannot find an answer to that question. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Not sure enough information is provided. However the answer might be simpler than …
perhaps determining if new EIN is required will answer the question. Does this help:

Thanks for your reply. I know that a new EIN will be needed for the spin off entity but I'm just unsure if the new entity needs to follow the parent company fiscal year end or not?
