Key legal question
Whether consultancy fees paid to C.________ GmbH constituted hidden profit distributions and had to be added back to taxable profit.
Extracted holding
Yes. The company failed to show equivalent consideration; the payments were motivated by the shareholder relationship and were not business justified.
Extracted reasoning
No substantiated counterperformance was proven, the contract was concluded because of the shareholder's proximity, and the payments lacked clear, verifiable performance benchmarks.
