NOTE 18 – INCOME TAXES

The Company and its less than 100% owned subsidiaries are filing separate tax returns and we calculate the provision for income taxes by using a “separate return” method. Section 174 deduction and R&D credits are calculated using consolidated tax return rules and allocated among its members. Tax effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring items are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate calculation and recognized in the interim period in which they occur.

We maintain a full valuation allowance against the value of our U.S. and state net deferred tax assets because recoverability of the tax assets does not meet the “more likely than not” likelihood at December 30, 2023 and September 30, 2023.
