15. Income Taxes (continued) The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of the deferred tax assets. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The Company recorded a valuation allowance of $2,951,000 on the net deferred tax assets of its subsidiaries in Argentina, Chile and Holland as of October 31, 2025 as the Company does not believe it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be realized due to the recent history of cumulative pre-tax book losses and lack of objectively verifiable future sources of taxable income. As of October 31, 2025, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $7,570,000 related to its state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards.
