Income Taxes

In determining quarterly provisions for income taxes, the Company uses the annual estimated effective tax rate applied to the actual year-to-date loss, adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. The Company’s annual estimated effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily as a result of a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets, stock-based compensation, state taxes, nondeductible executive compensation and other permanent differences.

The Company has evaluated the available positive and negative evidence supporting the realization of its gross deferred tax assets, including cumulative losses, and the amount and timing of future taxable income, and has determined it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets as of each balance sheet date presented.

On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “Act”), which contains provisions that became effective on January 1, 2023, including a 15% corporate minimum tax and a 1% excise tax on stock buybacks. While the Company is still evaluating the impact of the Act, the Company does not currently expect any material changes on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company has not recorded any uncertain tax positions and has not recognized interest or penalties in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.
