INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXES
For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we calculated the provision of income taxes by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to the ordinary loss for the reporting period resulting in a zero tax provision consistent with prior periods.

The deferred tax assets were fully offset by a valuation allowance at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and no income tax benefit has been recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for any of the periods presented. At December 31, 2018, we had available federal and state tax loss carryforwards of $87,345 and tax credits for federal and state tax purposes of $335 which begin to expire in 2028. Any losses incurred in 2018 and beyond do not expire. An ownership change under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code was deemed to occur on May 30, 2014. Given the limitation calculation, we anticipate approximately $16,200 in losses generated prior to the ownership change date will be subject to potential limitation. The estimated annual limitation is $1,062, which is increased by $2,302 over the first five years as a result of an unrealized built in gain. A second ownership change under Section 382 was deemed to occur on December 11, 2018. The estimated annual limitation is$9,736, which is increased by $22,430 over the first five years as a result of an unrealized built in gain.
Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended December 31, 2018 and through June 30, 2019. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projections for future growth.
