For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, the federal and state current tax expense was minimal due to NOLs which resulted from the bonus depreciation provisions of the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015, the Tax Increase Prevention Act of 2014 and the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012. Federal and state NOLs are being carried forward to offset current and future taxable income.

For the years ended December 31, 2019, and 2018, the federal tax benefit is primarily due to production tax credits, and the reduction of the federal statutory tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent enacted as part of the TCJA.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the federal deferred income tax benefit is due to the remeasurement of deferred income tax assets and liabilities resulting from the TCJA.
