10.          Income Taxes

 

The provision for income taxes shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income was computed based on the Company's actual results, which approximate the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the balance of the current fiscal year.  At March 31, 2014, the Company had consolidated net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $265,229,000 for federal income tax purposes expiring in varying amounts through the year 2028 with a significant portion expiring in 2020. 

 

The net deferred tax assets shown in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the periods ending March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are $10,850,000 and $11,248,000, respectively.  In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the period in which those temporary differences become deductible.  Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.  The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has previously audited the Company’s 2003, 2004 and 2009 consolidated income tax returns and made no changes to the reported tax for those periods.  The IRS has not audited any of AMIC's tax returns for any of the years in which the losses giving rise to the NOL carryforward were reported.  Management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these net deferred tax assets recorded at March 31, 2014.
