transferring corporation [entity]
Explanation:
Extract from source #1:
"Under the Directive, a corporation effecting the merger by inter-corporate transfer of assets is not granted the right to give the shares received in return for the assets and liabilities transferred a value for tax purposes equal to their fair market value (but may be required under domestic law to give them a value equal to the book value of the assets and liabilities transferred), thereby creating an opportunity for the government to tax the ***transferring corporation*** effectively for a gain that is already going to be taxed to the acquiring company upon its future disposition of the assets and liabilities."

Extract from source #2:
"In addition, if the stock were issued with a forfeiture provision, upon forfeiture the stock would revert to the ***transferring corporation***. The ***transferring corporation*** would have to recognize a gain or loss as if it had sold the stock for value. If the stock reverted to the issuing corporation, however, the transferor would receive nonrecognition treatment."

BTW, \"Gewerbeverlust\" should be \"trade loss\" or \"trading loss\".
