On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was enacted and signed into law in the U.S. in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. One of the provisions of this law is the temporary suspension of the 80% limitation on the utilization of net operating losses generated in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2021. Additionally, the CARES Act allows The Company to carryback net operating losses generated in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2021 to the five previous periods if the company has taxable income in the carryback years. Neither of these modifications are expected to apply to the Company due to the sustained history of losses.
