NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES

 

The Company files separate tax returns in the United States and in Macau, China. The Macau Subsidiary has received approval from the Macau government to operate its business as a Macau Offshore Company (MOC), and is exempt from the Macau income tax. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Macau Subsidiary recorded no tax provision.

 

The U.S. Federal net operating loss carryforward is subject to an IRS Section 382 limitation. As of March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had net deferred tax assets of approximately $0.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 we determined our effective tax rate to be approximately 20.1% and we recorded a tax provision of approximately $0.2 million On December 22, 2017 the Tax Cut and Jobs Act was enacted which reduced the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. As a result of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act we determined our blended rate for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 was approximately 28.4% and we recorded a tax provision of approximately $0.2 million. Upon completion of our analysis for all of the tax effects of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act we recognized an additional tax provision of approximately $0.3 million at March 31, 2018 primarily related to the revaluation of our net deferred tax assets.

 

The income tax provision (benefit) for federal, foreign, and state income taxes in the consolidated statements of income consisted of the following components for 2019 and 2018:

The company performed an analysis in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, which require an assessment of both positive and negative evidence when determining whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets are recoverable. The analysis performed to assess the realizability of the deferred tax assets included an evaluation of the pattern and timing of the reversals of temporary differences and the length of carryback and carryforward periods available under the applicable federal and state laws; and the amount and timing of future taxable income. As of March 31, 2019 the analysis indicated that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets recorded will be realized.

 

At March 31, 2019, the Company has federal tax net operating loss carryforwards in the amount of approximately $1.1 million that begin to expire in the year 2025. The net operating loss carryforward is subject to an IRS Section 382 limitation. There is approximately $0.2 million per year available to use beginning in Fiscal 2019. In addition, the Company has state tax net operating loss carryforwards in the amount of approximately $5.2 million that will begin to expire beginning in 2024.

 

The Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2016.
