The Company has approximately $738,000 of net operating losses (NOL) carried forward to offset taxable income, if any, in future years which expire commencing in fiscal 2037. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods 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. Based on the assessment, management has established a full valuation allowance against all deferred tax asset relating to NOLs for every period because it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The tax returns for 2013 through 2016 remain open for inspection by federal and state taxing authorities. Utilization of the NOLs may be limited under IRC certain 382 due to ownership changes.
