The Company files income tax returns for U.S. federal income tax purposes and in Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. Based on federal tax returns filed or to be filed through December 31, 2025, the Company had available approximately $26.3 million in U.S. tax net operating loss carryforwards which assesses the utilization of a company’s net operating loss carryforwards resulting from retaining continuity of its business operations and changes within its ownership structure. Net operating loss carryforwards expire in 20 years for federal income tax reporting purposes. For Federal income tax purposes, the net operating losses begin to expire in 2020, however, carryforward losses for years beginning in 2018 have no expiration. State net operating loss carryforwards through December 31, 2025 are approximately $26.3 million and have begun to expire in 2020. There is a full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 which may be reversed in future periods at a point when the Company can make the determination that the recoverability will be probable. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets increased and decreased by approximately $793,100 and $959,100 during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

The Company annually conducts an analysis of its tax positions and has concluded that it has no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2025. The Company is currently not under audit in any jurisdiction. The 2021 through 2024 tax years are open to examination by the various federal and state jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company’s policy is to record uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

About Income Taxes Disclosures

The income tax disclosure reveals how much a company actually pays in taxes versus what the statutory rate would predict. Analysts focus on the effective tax rate (ETR) reconciliation, which breaks down every item driving the gap between the 21% federal rate and the company's reported ETR — including R&D credits, foreign rate differentials, and state taxes. Deferred tax assets (DTAs) and their valuation allowances signal management's confidence in future profitability: a rising allowance suggests the company doubts it can use accumulated tax benefits. Uncertain tax benefit (UTB) reserves quantify exposure to IRS challenges on aggressive positions.

Key signals to watch: sudden ETR drops without clear operational reasons, large increases in valuation allowances, growing UTB balances, and significant unremitted foreign earnings. Post-TCJA, pay attention to GILTI and BEAT provisions that affect multinational tax structures. Compare the cash taxes paid (from the cash flow statement) against the income tax provision to gauge earnings quality.
