Income Taxes

Note 5 - Income Taxes:

The Company has incurred losses since inception, which have generated net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards. The NOL carryforwards arise from both United States and Canadian sources. Pretax income/(losses) arising from domestic operations (United States) were $1,274,619, $(8,025,582) and $(8,040,033) for the years ended July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Pretax losses arising from foreign operations (Canada) were $1,276,036, $528,741 and $1,450,244 for the years ended July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of July 31, 2014, the Company has NOL carryforwards in Generex Biotechnology Corporation of approximately $202 million, which expire in 2018 through 2034, in Generex Pharmaceuticals Inc. of approximately $44 million, which expire in 2015 through 2034, and in Antigen Express, Inc. of approximately $25 million, which expire in 2016 through 2034. These loss carryforwards are subject to limitation due to the acquisition of Antigen and may be limited in future years due to certain structural ownership changes which have occurred over the last several years, related to the Company’s equity and convertible debenture financing transactions.

For the years ended July 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate principally due to net operating losses and other temporary differences for which no benefit was recorded.

Deferred income taxes consist of the following:
