At December 31, 2011 the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of $3,714 and various state net operating loss carryforwards of $14,961 which begin to expire in 2022.  The deductibility of these net operating losses is limited under IRC Sec. 382.

A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets depends on the ability of the Company to generate sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character in the future and in the appropriate taxing jurisdictions. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

Due to statutory law changes and a change in expectations of future taxable income, the Company reversed a valuation allowance against its District of Columbia net operating loss carryforward in 2011. Due to a change in expectations of future taxable income, the Company reversed a valuation allowance against its West Virginia net operating loss carryforward in 2010.

An analysis of the differences between the effective tax rates and the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate is as follows:
