Note 9:  Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $28,000 and $146,000 during the three months ended October 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $66,000 and $277,000 during the nine months ended October 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These income tax benefits were primarily associated with the Company’s acquisition of Voxter, Inc. in March 2018. The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.

As of October 31, 2019, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $5.6 million, none of which would currently affect the Company's effective tax rate if recognized due to the Company's deferred tax assets being fully offset by a valuation allowance. The Company does not anticipate that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits relating to tax positions existing at October 31, 2019 will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. There was no interest expense or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits recorded through October 31, 2019.

A number of years may elapse before an uncertain tax position is audited and finally resolved. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular uncertain tax position, the Company believes that its reserves for income taxes reflect the most likely outcome. The Company adjusts these reserves, as well as the related interest, in light of changing facts and circumstances.  Settlement of any particular position could require the use of cash.
