NOTE
9:
     INCOME TAXES
 
As of
September 30, 2020
and
December 31, 2019,
the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against all of the net deferred tax assets. This was based on management's assessment, including the last
two
years of operating losses, that it is more likely than
not
that the net deferred tax assets
may
not
be realized in the future. On
March 27, 2020,
the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted by the United States Congress. As a result of the enactment of the CARES Act, net operating losses (“NOL's”) can now be carried back for
five
years and resulted in the Company recognizing approximately
$1.5
million of a tax benefit, of which
$.8
million is a receivable at
September 30, 2020.
We continue to evaluate for potential utilization of the Company's deferred tax asset, which has been fully reserved for, on a quarterly basis, reviewing our economic models, including projections and timing of orders, the commencement of operations of the CVD Materials segment and cost containment measures.
