NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company had gross deferred tax assets of approximately $66,100,000 and $65,000,000 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, which primarily relate to net operating loss carryforwards. The increase during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 relates to the operations of the Company.

 

The Company records a valuation allowance in the full amount of our net deferred tax assets since realization of such tax benefits has been determined by the Company’s management to be less likely than not.

 

The Company has identified our federal and California state tax returns as “major” tax jurisdictions. Currently, the periods the Company’s income tax returns are subject to examination for these jurisdictions are 2015 through 2018, until such time the Company files the 2019 tax return. The Company believes its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit, and the Company do not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position. Therefore, no liabilities for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded.

 

At September 30, 2020, the Company had available net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax reporting purposes of approximately $251,700,000, including net operating losses of $3,700,000 recorded through the nine months ended September 30, 2020. At December 31, 2019, the Company had available net operating loss carry-forwards for federal income tax reporting purposes of approximately $248,000,000 which are available to offset future taxable income. Portions of these carry-forwards will expire through 2038 if not otherwise utilized. The Company has not performed a formal analysis, but the Company believes its ability to use such net operating losses and tax credit carry-forwards is subject to annual limitations due to change of control provisions under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code, which significantly impacts the Company’s ability to realize these deferred tax assets.

 

As of the date of this filing, the Company has not filed its 2019 federal and state corporate income tax returns. The Company expects to file these documents as soon as practicable.
