(11) Income Taxes

 

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law and includes certain income tax provisions relevant to businesses. The Company is required to recognize the effect on the consolidated financial statements in the period the law was enacted, which was the quarter ended March 31, 2020. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2020, the CARES Act did not have a material impact on our provision for income taxes. However, certain provisions of the CARES Act did have a favorable cash impact. Specifically, with respect to the elimination of the 80% of taxable income limitation on net operating loss carryforwards that may allow corporate entities to fully utilize net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income in 2018, 2019 or 2020, we expect to realize a total reduction of approximately $5.4 million of cash taxes paid in 2020. Secondly, taxpayers with alternative minimum tax credits may claim a refund for the entire amount of such credit instead of recovering the credit through refunds over a period of multiple years, as required by the 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act, which resulted in a $1.5 million federal tax refund claim for the Company, which we received in June 2020. Lastly, the non-income tax-based provision allowing an employer to pay its share of Social Security payroll taxes that would otherwise be due from the date of enactment through December 31, 2020 over the following two years is expected to result in the deferral of approximately $6.7 million of those payroll taxes, half of which we expect to remit by September 15, 2021 and the remaining amounts in 2022.
