| INCOME TAXES | NOTE 9 INCOME TAXES
Pursuant to the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740 Income Taxes deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of (a) temporary difference between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, and (b) net operating loss carryforwards. No net provision for refundable Federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying statement of operations because no recoverable taxes were paid previously. Significant components of the Company’s net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2013 and 2012 are shown below. A valuation allowance of approximately $2,841,000 and $1,453,000 has been established to offset the net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, due to uncertainties surrounding the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income to realize these assets. The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and California. The Company’s tax years for 2009 and forward are subject to examination by the United States and California tax authorities due to the carry forward of unutilized net operating losses and research and development credits (if any). The Company has not filed federal or state income tax returns through the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, but it is in the process of preparing the appropriate forms and submitting them to appropriate governmental agency. We have incurred losses since inception, so no current income tax provision or benefit has been recorded. Significant components of our net deferred tax assets are shown in the table below.
The Company recognizes windfall tax benefits associated with the exercise of stock options directly to stockholders' equity only when realized . Accordingly, deferred tax assets are not recognized for net operating loss carryforwards from windfall tax benefits occurring from January 1, 2006 onward. At June 30, 2013, deferred tax assets do not include excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation of approximately $216,000. At June 30, 2013, the Company had unused net operating loss carryovers of approximately $6,851,000 and $6,813,000 that are available to offset future federal and state taxable income respectively. These operating losses begin to expire in 2030. Both the federal and state net operating loss carryovers at June 30, 2013 may be adjusted once tax returns are filed. The provision for income taxes on earnings subject to income taxes differs from the statutory federal rate at June 30, 2013 and 2012, due to the following:
As of June 30, 2013, we have not yet completed our analysis of the deferred tax assets relating to federal and state net operating losses. Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Sections 382, use of our net operating loss carryforwards could be limited if a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% occurs within a three-year period. We plan to complete a Section 382 analysis regarding whether there are limitations of the net operating loss prior to utilizing any net operating losses. On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, subsequently codified in ASC 740, Income Taxes, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, ASC 740 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. ASC 740 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We follow the provisions of ASC 740 relating to uncertain tax provisions and have commenced analyzing filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. As a result of adoption, no additional tax liabilities have been recorded. There are no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2013 or June 30, 2012. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and state jurisdictions. The Company’s tax years for 2009 and forward, when filed, will be subject to examination by the IRS and tax years 2009 and forward are subject to examination by California tax authorities. The Company is currently not under examination by any taxing authorities. |
