INCOME TAXES

We file a US federal consolidated income tax return and state income tax returns in various jurisdictions. We have statutes of limitation open for federal & state income tax returns related to tax years 2014 through 2016.
 
Income tax expense for both the three months and six months ended June 30, 2017 was zero as a result of recording a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset generated predominantly by net operating losses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company was organized as a limited liability company and operated under the default classification as a partnership until July 31, 2016. Consequently, prior to August 1, 2016, income tax expense or benefits were calculated at the members’ level.

We had no material interest or penalties during fiscal 2017 or fiscal 2016, and we do not anticipate any such items during the next twelve months. Our policy is to record interest and penalties directly related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

As a result of the merger, there was a change in ownership as defined in IRS § 382. Because of this change, use of a portion of the accumulated net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards will be limited in future periods. Further, a portion of the carryforwards will expire before being applied to reduce future income tax liabilities. Since the net deferred tax assets have a full valuation allowance recorded, any limitation generated from this calculation would not effect the current financial statements.
