As of December 31, 2011, the Company has available federal net operating loss carry forward of $19.9 million and state net operating loss carry forwards of $19.9 million, the most significant of which expire from 2020 until 2037. Additionally, the Company has income tax net operating loss carryforwards related to our international operations which have an indefinite life. The Company assess the recoverability of its net operating loss carry forwards and other deferred tax assets and records a valuation allowance to the extent recoverability does not satisfy the “more likely than not” recognition criteria. The Company continues to maintain the valuation allowance until sufficient positive evidence exists to support full or partial reversal. As of December 31, 2018 the Company had a valuation allowance totaling $12.0 million against its deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, due to insufficient positive evidence, primarily consisting of losses within the taxing jurisdictions that have tax attributes and deferred tax assets. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 was signed into law on December 22, 2017. The law included significant changes to the US Corporate income tax system, including a Federal corporate rate reduction from 35% to 21%, limitations on the deductibility of interest expense and executive compensation and the transition of US international taxation from a worldwide tax system to a territorial tax system. As the Company is not currently a taxpayer due to ongoing operating losses, the impact on the financial statements is not material. We have reflected the lower rates in the calculation above in the December 31, 2018 information.
