As of December 31, 2025, the Company has federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $5.6 million and state NOL carryforwards spread across various jurisdictions with a combined total of approximately $12.8 million. The federal NOL carryforwards have an indefinite carryforward period and are usable against up to 80% of taxable income annually. The state NOL carryforwards relate to various jurisdictions, the majority of which are attributable to the State of Illinois, and begin to expire in 2037. Additionally, as of December 31, 2025, the Company has federal tax credit carryforwards of approximately $0.2 million, and state tax credit carryforwards of approximately $0.3 million. If not claimed, federal research and development (“R&D”) credits will start to expire in 2045, whereas California R&D credits have no expiration date. Utilization of the Company’s federal NOL carryforwards and certain tax credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation under IRC Section 382 if an ownership change, as defined by the IRC, has occurred or occurs in the future. The Company has not completed a formal IRC Section 382 study. If an ownership change has occurred or were to occur, the Company’s ability to utilize its pre-change tax attributes could be limited.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the future generation of taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. In making this assessment, management considers, by tax jurisdiction, the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards, taxable income in prior carryback periods where carryback is permitted, and available tax planning strategies. Based on this evaluation, management has continued to maintain a full valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred tax assets in Israel and recorded a valuation allowance during the current year against California research and development credit carryforwards, as it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will not be realized as of the balance sheet date. The valuation allowance related to the California research and development tax credit increased by $260 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to no change in the valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

Management has evaluated and concluded that there were no material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company does not expect any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits within 12 months of the reporting date. The Company has U.S. federal and certain state tax returns subject to examination by tax authorities beginning with those filed for the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company’s policy is to classify assessments, if any, for tax related interest as interest expense and penalties as general and administrative expenses.

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.
