As of September 30, 2022, the Company had net deferred tax assets of approximately $7,373. The deferred tax assets are primarily composed of federal and state NOL carryforwards and federal and state research and development (“R&D”) credit carryforwards. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had federal NOL carryforwards of approximately $32,817, which expire from 2024 through 2037, except for $1,262 that have an indefinite carryforward period. The Company also has an estimated $2,500 and $119 of federal and state R&D tax credits, respectively, as of September 30, 2022, a portion of which will begin to expire in the current tax year. The Company reviews its ability to realize its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis. In doing so, management considers historical and projected taxable income of the Company, along with any tax planning strategies and any other positive or negative evidence. Realization is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the loss carryforwards and other deferred assets. The Company expects to utilize the deferred tax asset in the future, except for those related to federal R&D tax credit carryforwards and net operating loss carryforwards, R&D credits and foreign tax credits related to Genasys Spain continues to maintain a partial allowance of $9,378. Since future financial results may differ from previous estimates, periodic adjustments to the Company’s valuation allowances may be necessary. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state jurisdictions. All of the Company’s historical tax years are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and various state jurisdictions due to the generation of NOL and credit carryforwards.
