Management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect its view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. As of June 30, 2024, it has been determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be recognized. Thus, there is a valuation allowance of $36,484,000 as of June 30, 2024. This was an increase of $2,700,000 from June 30, 2023.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”) available for carryforward of approximately $43,396,000 and $63,131,000 for federal and state purposes, respectively. Of the $43,396,000 federal NOL carryforwards, $14,707,000 expire in varying amounts through 2037 and $26,833,000 of post-2017 NOLs can be carried forward indefinitely. Note that the post-2017 NOLs may only offset 80% of future taxable income. The Company had capital loss carryforwards of $6,814,000 for federal and state purposes. The capital losses begin to expire in 2024 for both federal and state purposes. There are immaterial California state tax credits of $603,000 which expire in various years.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”) available for carryforward of approximately $41,835,000 and $51,289,000 for federal and state purposes, respectively.

Utilization of certain tax attributes may be subject a substantial annual limitation if it should be determined that there has been a change in the ownership of more than 50 percent of the value of the Company’s stock, pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses before utilization.

Uncertain Tax Positions

The Company regularly evaluates the likelihood of realizing the benefit from income tax positions that it has taken in various federal, state, and foreign filings by considering all relevant facts, circumstances and information available. If the Company determines it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained, a benefit will be recognized at the largest amount that it believes is cumulatively greater than 50% likely to be realized. The following table summarizes changes in the amount of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions:

Unrecognized Tax Benefits at June 30, 2023	$	1,665,000
Increase in tax positions taken		-
Decrease in tax positions taken		-
Unrecognized Tax Benefits at June 30, 2024	$	1,665,000

$1,665,000 of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively, would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. The unrecognized tax benefit is not expected to reverse in the next 12 months. Interest and penalties related to income tax matters are classified as a component of income tax expense. As of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, no interest and penalties were recorded.
