Income Taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. The provision for income taxes includes federal, state and local income taxes currently payable and deferred taxes resulting from temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.

No income tax expense was incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Income tax expense of $4 and $8 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, was comprised primarily of changes in deferred tax liability related to goodwill. Goodwill is an amortizing asset according to tax regulations.

The Company has experienced certain ownership changes, which under the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, result in annual limitations on the Company's ability to utilize its net operating losses in the future. The February 2014, July 2014, June 2015 and May 2018 equity raises by the Company will limit the annual use of these net operating loss carryforwards. Although the Company has not performed a Section 382 study, any limitation of its pre-change net operating loss carryforwards that would result in a reduction of its deferred tax asset would also have an equal and offsetting adjustment to the valuation allowance.
