Provision for Income Tax

Under ASC topic–740-270, Interim Reporting-Income Taxes, we are required to make our best estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and use that rate to provide for income taxes on a current year-to-date basis. An exception applied to the current quarter as the Company was not able to provide a sufficiently precise forecast of taxable income for the year primarily due to the sale of the aesthetics business. The Company recorded, for continuing operations, a provision for income tax of $2 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and $79 thousand for the three months ended April 2, 2011. The decrease of income tax was primarily due to the decrease in taxable income in the current quarter. The Company also incurred a tax loss from disposal of discontinued operations in the current quarter and recorded a tax benefit of approximately $0.6 million primarily due to the anticipation of carrying back the loss to 2010 and 2011.

Deferred Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC topic 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"), which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax bases of recorded assets and liabilities. ASC 740 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had a deferred tax asset of approximately $11.7 million which is fully offset by a valuation allowance. When realized, the asset will be reflected on the Company's balance sheet and the reversal of the corresponding valuation allowance will result in a tax benefit being recorded in the statement of operations in the respective period.
