The process involves scheduling the reversals of existing taxable temporary differences over the long term reversal period taking into account taxable income in carryback years and available tax planning strategies.&#160; The company also takes into account future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences.&#160; The fact that the company had a three-year cumulative financial reporting loss would generally be significant negative evidence of the ability to rely on such future income for realization of the asset.&#160; However, except for a 2011 goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge which created no tax deduction, the company has recent three-year cumulative profits and is not in a tax loss carryforward position. Therefore, following the guidance in ASC 740-10-30-22, the company considers the cumulative financial reporting loss to be an aberration rather than a continuing condition and includes future taxable income in its analysis.</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .25in;punctuation-wrap:simple;"><b><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">The projection of future income requires management&#146;s judgment in assessing industry trends and future profitability.&#160; Each year, management has made an estimate of future taxable income for the deferred tax valuation allowance analysis using assumptions and projections that are consistent with those used for other accounting and business purposes.&#160; Recent profit and losses (after factoring out unusual or non-recurring items) are considered the most objectively verifiable evidence and provide the basis for the future projections.&#160; In years prior to 2013, the projections of future taxable income over the scheduling period were sufficient to fully utilize the deferred tax asset, notwithstanding industry challenges that primarily began in late 2011 when the Centers for Medicare&nbsp;&amp; Medicaid (CMS) imposed a reduction of over 11% in payments to skilled nursing facilities.</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .25in;punctuation-wrap:simple;"><b><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:bold;">Operating income for 2013, while improved from 2012, fell short of expected results.&#160; In the long-term care segment, a substantial portion of the company&#146;s skilled nursing patients come directly from hospital settings.&#160; In 2013, most hospitals across the country reported lower than expected occupancy, which correspondingly resulted in lower occupancy for the skilled nursing industry, including HCR ManorCare.&#160; The reimbursement environment also continued to be challenging with no material increases in reimbursement rates and, in some states, mid-year reductions to Medicaid rates.&#160; Revenue was further reduced beginning April&nbsp;1, 2013 when government spending reductions&nbsp;required by the Budget Control Act of 2011 cut all Medicare provider payments by two percent. The lower than expected patient volume coupled with the additional reimbursement reductions caused the company&#146;s 2013 revenue to be lower than expected.&#160; While operating expenses were also somewhat lower than expected, overall levels of profitability were lower than assumed in the prior years&#146; projections.</font></b></p>
