ArborGen Holdings Limited (NZX: ARB) announces today that its wholly owned subsidiary in the US, ArborGen Inc., has completed extensive analysis confirming it should be entitled it to receive US$2 million of Employee Retention Credits under the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act. Under the CARES Act, businesses can apply for a credit of the payroll taxes paid on wages between March 2020 and September 2021 for wages not forgiven under the CARES Act Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). While as a next step, ArborGen Inc. will need to file amended quarterly payroll tax forms with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to notify the IRS of the credit due to the Company, there is a high probability that the Company will receive the reimbursements approximating US$2 million.
