Eva Live Inc Income Taxes Disclosure
NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES
The Company has calculated income taxes using the asset and liability method of accounting. We have computed deferred income taxes by multiplying statutory rates applicable to estimated future-year differences between the financial statement and tax basis carrying amounts of assets and liabilities.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company had cumulative net income and net losses of $8,127,313 and $3,753,268, respectively, available for carryforward to offset future taxable income, which begins to expire in 2035. The Company has determined to provide full valuation allowances for our net deferred tax assets at the end of 2023 and 2022, including NOL carryforwards generated during the years. Based on its evaluation of positive and negative evidence, including our history of operating losses and the uncertainty of generating future taxable income, it would enable us to realize our deferred tax assets.
In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that we may not be able to realize some portion or all of the deferred tax assets. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets depends on generating future taxable income when those temporary differences become deductible.
Based on the available objective evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable at December 31, 2025. Accordingly, management has maintained a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2025. The net change in the total valuation allowance for the 12 months ended December 31, 2025, increased by $2,874,651 to $413,716. At December 31, 2025, and 2024, we had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $434,379 and $1,293,020, respectively, expiring beginning in 2037 for the federal and 2037 for the state.
For the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company analyzed its ASC 740 position and did not identify any uncertain tax positions defined under ASC 740. Should this position be determined in the future and the Company owes interest and penalties because of this, these would be recognized as interest expense and other expenses, respectively, in the consolidated financial statements.
The Company has identified the United States Federal tax returns as its “major” tax jurisdiction. The United States federal returns for 2025 and 2024 have been submitted and accepted by the United States Internal Revenue Service. The Company was not subject to tax examination by authorities in the United States before 2015. The Nevada State tax returns for 2025 and 2024 have been submitted and accepted by the Nevada State Franchise Tax Board. Currently, the Company does not have any ongoing tax examinations.
The Company has no foreign tax expenses and liabilities as of December 31, 2025, and 2024.

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.
