Income Taxes Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible.
As of February 3, 2024, there were no material valuation allowances that have been provided for net deferred tax assets as management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize all material deferred tax assets before any expirations as of February 3, 2024.
