Taxes

During the nine months ended June 30, 2011, there were no material increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits and management does not anticipate any material increases or decreases in the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits over the next twelve months. As of June 30, 2011, we had approximately $185,000 of interest and penalties accrued as tax liabilities on the balance sheet. As of June 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, our unrecognized gross tax benefit totaled $338,000.

We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal, state, and local jurisdictions and, currently, no federal, state, and local income tax returns are under examination. The following tax years remain open to income tax examination for each of the more significant jurisdictions where we are subject to income taxes: after fiscal year 2007 for U.S. federal, after fiscal year 2006 for the state of California, and after fiscal year 2007 for the state of New Mexico.
