NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company is incorporated in the United States of America and is subject to United States federal taxation. No provisions for income taxes have been made as the Company had no U.S. taxable income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

 

The Company’s Greece subsidiaries are governed by the income tax laws of Greece. The corporate tax rate in Greece is 22% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments.

 

The Company’s United Kingdom subsidiaries are governed by the income tax laws of the United Kingdom. The corporate tax rate in the United Kingdom is 19% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments.

 

As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s effective tax rate differs from the US federal statutory tax rate primarily due to a valuation allowance recorded against net deferred tax assets in in the United States.

 

We regularly review deferred tax assets to assess their potential realization and establish a valuation allowance for portions of such assets to reduce the carrying value if we do not consider it to be more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Our review includes evaluating both positive (e.g., sources of taxable income) and negative (e.g., recent historical losses) evidence that could impact the realizability of our deferred tax assets. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has maintained a valuation allowance against all net deferred tax assets in the United States only. Foreign valuation allowances had been reversed as of December 31, 2020.

 

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has a benefit for tax recorded in any jurisdiction where it is subject to income tax, in the amount of $286,329 and $178,430, respectively, which is included in Deferred tax assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
