INCOME TAXES |
| The Company is subject to federal income taxes and files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return. In addition to the federal tax return the Company files income tax returns in various state jurisdictions on a combined or separate basis. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded a $2,252,000 deferred tax expense related to a full valuation allowance taken on its net deferred tax asset. The full valuation allowance was recorded as a result of the conclusion that the Company, more likely than not, will not generate sufficient future taxable income to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards and other temporary differences. This conclusion was based on the following: (i) pre-tax losses for the two most recent years, (ii) the challenging U.S. defense budget environment which has made it difficult to project revenue and profitability in future years with any degree of confidence, and (iii) the costs that will be incurred related to the TDL consolidation in 2014. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has an alternative minimum tax credit of approximately $573,000 with no limitation on the carryforward period. The Company also has federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $7,000,000 and $6,000,000, respectively, at December 31, 2013. The net operating loss carry-forwards expire from 2018 through 2033. | | | | The reconciliation of income tax computed at the U.S. federal statutory tax rates to income tax expense is as follows: |
