Note 9. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rate was (10.87)% and 4.97% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The variance from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% for each of the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, was primarily attributable to the utilization of deferred tax attributes that had a full valuation allowance.

Management assesses its deferred tax assets quarterly to determine whether all or any portion of the asset is more likely than not unrealizable under ASC Topic 740 Income Taxes. The Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for any portion of the asset that management concludes is more likely than not to be unrealizable. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company’s assessment considers all evidence, both positive and negative, including the nature, frequency and severity of any current and cumulative losses, taxable income in carryback years, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, tax planning strategies, and projected future taxable income in making this assessment. At June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company has a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets but for the exclusion of a deferred tax liability generated by goodwill (an indefinite lived intangible) that may not be considered a future source of taxable income in evaluating the need for a valuation allowance.
