​ The Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its net deferred tax assets and considered its history of losses, ultimately concluding that it is “more likely than not” that the Company will not recognize the benefits of federal, state and foreign deferred tax assets and, as such, has maintained a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. In response to COVID-19, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted on March 27, 2020. Among other provisions, the CARES Act included (i) the ability to use net operating losses to offset income without the 80% taxable income limitation enacted as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) for net operating losses incurred in the 2018, 2019 or 2020 tax years; and (ii) the ability to claim a current deduction for interest expense up to 50% of adjusted taxable income for the 2019 and 2020 tax years (rather than 30% of adjusted taxable income pursuant to the TCJA). We do not expect that any of the provisions of the CARES Act will result in a material impact to the financial statements. The net deferred tax liability of $1.6 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, relates to the temporary differences associated with the IPR&D intangible assets acquired in previous business combinations and are not deductible for tax purposes. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 due to a decrease in deferred tax liabilities resulting from the impairment of the TAM program IPR&D asset in the third quarter of 2021. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $623.1 million and $879.9 million, respectively, which may be available to offset certain future income tax liabilities and begin to expire in 2023 and 2029, respectively. Of the federal net operating loss carryforwards of $623.1 million, approximately $374.8 million are from 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 and have no expiration date. As of December 31, 2022, the Company also had federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of $41.4 million and $11.7 million, respectively, which may be available to offset future income tax liabilities and begin to expire in 2023 and 2022, respectively. Utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards and research and credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or Section 382, due to ownership changes that occurred previously or that could occur in the future. These ownership changes may limit the amount of carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income. In general, an ownership change, as defined by Section 382, results from transactions increasing the ownership of certain shareholders or public groups in the stock of a corporation by more than 50% over a three-year period. The Company has estimated the amounts of net operating loss and research and development tax credit carryforwards which will expire unutilized as a result of its estimated annual limitations under Section 382 and has excluded those amounts from the carryforward amounts disclosed above and in the deferred tax assets and liabilities table included in this footnote. The Company has concluded Section 382 studies through 2015 for Celldex generated NOLs. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits. Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and Connecticut are the jurisdictions in which the Company primarily operates or has operated and has income tax nexus. The Company is not currently under examination by these or any other jurisdictions for any tax year. Generally, in U.S. federal and state taxing jurisdictions, all years which generated net operating losses and/or tax credit carryforwards remain subject to examination to the extent those carryforwards are utilized in a subsequent period.
