INCOME TAXES | NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 the Company did not recognize income tax provision as the Company is not forecasting any taxable income for the current year and had a loss before income tax benefit in the previous year. The Company’s income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was approximately $1,502,000 as the Company recognized a valuation reserve of all of its deferred tax assets based on the recent history of losses and forecasts that suggested the Company would not be able to utilize the deferred tax assets in the future. The Company’s income tax expense differs from the expected tax benefit/expense based on statutory rates primarily due to full valuation allowance for all of its subsidiaries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. | NOTE 16 - INCOME TAXES The Company’s loss before income taxes for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, and fiscal years ended March 31, 2023, and 2022 is as follows: SCHEDULE OF LOSS BEFORE INCOME TAXES

The Company recognizes federal, state and foreign current tax liabilities or assets based on its estimate of taxes payable to or refundable by tax authorities in the current fiscal year. The Company also recognizes federal, state and foreign deferred tax liabilities or assets based on the Company’s estimate of future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce any deferred tax assets by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence and judgment, are not expected to be realized. The Company performed an analysis in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, which requires an assessment of both positive and negative evidence when determining whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets are recoverable. The analysis performed to assess the realizability of the deferred tax assets included an evaluation of the pattern and timing of the reversals of temporary differences and the length of carryback and carryforward periods available under the applicable federal, state and foreign laws; and the amount and timing of future taxable income. The Company evaluated the realizability of its deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and concluded that valuation allowance against all of our deferred tax assets was necessary based upon the Company’s conclusions regarding, among other considerations, the Company’s recent history of losses and projected earnings for fiscal year 2024 and in the future. The actual tax provision differs from the “expected” tax for the nine-month transition period ended December 31, 2023, and the years ended March 31, 2023, and 2022 (computed by applying the U.S. Federal Corporate tax rate of 21 percent to income before taxes) as follows: SCHEDULE OF TAX PROVISION

THE SINGING MACHINE COMPANY, INC AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2023 and 2022 At December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2023, the Company had federal tax net operating loss carryforwards in the amount of approximately $6,149,000 and $4,131,000, respectively that begin to expire in the year 2025. The net operating loss carryforward is subject to an IRS Section 382 limitation that limited the amount available to use beginning in Fiscal 2020 to approximately $150,000 per year. In addition, the Company had state tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $2,453,000 and $2,238,000, respectively that will begin to expire beginning in 2024. These tax net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to adjustment based on future changes in ownership. At December 31, 2023, the Company evaluated the realizability of its deferred tax assets in accordance with GAAP and concluded that a valuation allowance of approximately $3,600,000 against deferred tax assets is necessary. The recognition of the remaining net deferred tax asset and corresponding tax benefit is based upon the Company’s conclusions regarding, among other considerations, the Company’s current and anticipated customers, contracts and product introductions, and recent operating results. |
