No, A Sub S corp is a "conduit", like a partnership. All of the income is reported on the shareholders personal tax return. Generally, all shareholders get their pro rata distribution of income based on their respective stock ownership.

How does double taxation of a corporate income occur?
Income to the corporation, as a legal "person", is taxable against the corporation. When the treasury pays dividends from its income to its shareholders, the dividend is taxable again as "income" to the shareholders. A "subchapter S-corporation" avoids this by skipping the corporate taxes and directly taxing the shareholders for any corporate income.

What is an s corporation?
A relatively small corporation may apply for tax status under Subchapter S of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (26 USC 1361 et seq.). The Code limits the number of investors, their nationalities, classes of stock, and types of investors (generally individuals, not corporations), and the restrictions and definitions change from time to time.In general, the major advantage of an S-corp is that it is not subject to income taxes, but rather they are "passed through" to the shareholders, pro rata. Therefore, shareholders of an S-corp only pay personal income taxes on the corporate income and the income is not taxed twice (once as corporate income and once as shareholder income). Furthermore, taxation of dividends paid to shareholders are subject to special treatment and may be excluded from gross income of the shareholder in some cases.
What is the difference in a closed corporation and an S corporation?
A closely held company is one in which all shares of stock are owned by a small number of people (often related to each other), and a Subchapter S corporation is one that conforms to that subchapter of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, including closely held corporations (with additional restrictions on nationality, number of shareholders, etc). The benefit of an S-corp is that the entitity income is not taxed separately from the income of the shareholders, so you don't pay income taxes twice. There is certainly no obligation for a close corporation to file for S-corp status, and there may be good reasons not to (e.g., foreign investors).

I hope that helps, Jahno B.
