acquisition financing ideas structure, financing, finance

Anyone got any ideas on how to finance an acquisition that would not trigger a heavy tax consequence in the year of the acquisition?
As thought about a payment plan type structure for this deal, but it would mean that the full value would still be taxable in the year the deal is done?

I like this but what about cap gains tax reform? Can’t really pull off positive carry anymore either.

I don’t really know. Perhaps arrange to lose money on the deal? Then it won’t be taxed.
