Notes
Income Tax Disclosure	`Note 9.Income Taxes` The provisions for income taxes shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income were computed by applying the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the reporting periods. Differences between the Federal statutory income tax rate and the Company’s effective income tax rate are principally from the dividends received deduction and tax-exempt interest income, state and local income taxes, and compensation related tax provisions. At December 31, 2019, AMIC and its subsidiaries had Federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $114,531,000, which expire in varying amounts through the year 2034, with a significant portion expiring in 2020, and are limited in their utilization to future taxable income earned on a separate company basis. At December 31, 2019, AMIC’s valuation allowance was $17,212,000 and is related to net operating loss carryforwards that, in the judgment of management, are not considered realizable. No change in the valuation allowance was necessary in the three months ended March 31, 2020. On March 27, 2020, as part of the business stimulus package in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act. The CARES Act established new tax provisions including, but not limited to: (1) five-year carryback of net operating losses ("NOLs") generated in 2018, 2019 and 2020; (2) accelerated refund of alternative minimum tax (AMT) credit carryforwards; and (3) retroactive changes to allow accelerated depreciation for certain depreciable property. At this time, the legislation does not have a material impact on the Company due to the lack of taxable losses in the stated carryback eligible tax years and the fact that the Company was already expecting to receive a cash benefit for the remaining AMT credits in the fiscal 2018 tax year return. The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance has selected the Company’s 2015 and 2016 NYS returns for audit.
