NOTE 13 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company has incurred losses since inception, which have generated net operating loss carryforwards. The net operating loss carryforwards arise solely from United States sources.

 

The Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $25.8 million of which $14.1 million related to years prior to 2018 which expire in 2022 through 2038. Because it is more likely than not that sufficient tax earnings will be generated to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards, the deferred tax asset related to the net operating loss carryforwards has a corresponding 100% valuation allowance. Additionally, under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the amounts of, and benefits from, net operating losses may be limited in certain circumstances, including a change in control.

 

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code generally imposes an annual limitation on the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that may be used to offset taxable income when a corporation has undergone significant changes in its stock ownership. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to utilize any net operating loss carryforwards in the future. The Company is subject to possible tax examination for the years 2014 through 2021.
