Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. Accordingly, we maintain a valuation allowance against substantially all of our net deferred tax assets in all the tax jurisdictions. The valuation allowance increased by $1 million in fiscal 2014 and decreased by $0.8 million and $1.9 million in fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

At April 30, 2014,  we had approximately $30.6 million in federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards after write-off of the limitations under the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 caused by changes in ownership, that begin to expire in fiscal year 2014 through 2029, approximately $9.7 million in California state NOL carryforwards that expire in fiscal years 2015 to 2031, approximately $106.3 million in other state NOL carryforwards that expire in fiscal years 2015 to 2031, and approximately $1.6 million in foreign NOL carryforwards that do not expire.

It is our intention to reinvest the earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiary in its operations. We do not provide for U.S. income taxes on the earnings of the foreign subsidiary as such earnings are to be reinvested indefinitely. As of April 30, 2014, there is minimal amount of cumulative earnings upon which U.S. income taxes have not been provided.
