Note 10 – Income Taxes

At September 30, 2015 the Company has aggregate tax net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $87.9 million ($59.1 million of unrestricted net operating tax losses and approximately $28.8 million of restricted net operating tax losses) and unused minimum tax credit carry forwards of $0.5 million. Substantially all of the net operating loss carry forwards and unused minimum tax credit carry forwards expire between 2025 and 2035. The Company’s utilization of restricted net operating tax loss carry forwards against future income for tax purposes is restricted pursuant to the “change in ownership” rules in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.

The reported tax expense (benefit) varies from the amount that would be provided by applying the statutory U.S. Federal income tax rate to the loss from continuing operations before taxes primarily as a result of the change in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes such assets will more likely than not be realized. As a result of our cumulative losses and uncertainty with respect to future taxable income, we have provided a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2015.
