To the extent liquidation distributions exceed shareholder tax basis, such excess is taxable gain in the year of receipt. To the extent liquidation distributions are less than shareholder tax basis, any loss will be recognized in the year the final liquidation distribution is received.

3Cash Liquidation Distribution is reported in Box 9 of Form 1099-DIV. Preferred shareholders will recognize taxable gain to the extent the liquidation distribution exceeds their tax basis.
