Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not record a current or deferred income tax expense or benefit due to current and historical losses incurred by the Company. The Company’s losses before income taxes consist solely of losses from domestic operations. On March 27, 2020, the United States enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The Cares Act includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of the employer portion of certain payroll taxes, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The CARES Act also established a Paycheck Protection Program whereby certain small businesses are eligible for a loan to fund payroll expenses, rent, and related costs. The Company considered the provisions under the CARES Act and elected not to take advantage of the provisions of CARES Act as the effect of such provisions was not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial statements. A reconciliation of income tax expense (benefit) computed at the statutory federal income tax rate to income taxes as reflected in the financial statements is as follows:
|  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |
Statutory US Federal tax rate |  |  | 21.0 | % |  |  | 21.0 | %
Permanent differences: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
State income taxes, net of Federal benefit |  |  | 7.0 | % |  |  | 7.0 | %
Stock compensation |  |  | (0.3) | % |  |  | (1.4) | %
Other |  |  | (0.1) | % |  |  | (0.5) | %
Temporary differences |  |  | (8.0) | % |  |  | (5.4) | %
Valuation allowance |  |  | (19.6) | % |  |  | (21.8) | %
Total |  |  | 0.0 | % |  |  | 0.0 | %
The components of our deferred tax assets (liabilities) for federal and state income taxes consisted of the following as of December 31, 2020 and 2019:
|  | 2020 |  |  | 2019 |
Deferred tax asset attributable to: |  |  |  |  |  |
Net operating loss carryover |  | $ | 8,990,000 |  |  | $ | 5,956,000 |
Stock-based compensation |  |  | 1,395,000 |  |  |  | 386,000 |
Other |  |  | 501,000 |  |  |  | 279,000 |
Valuation allowance |  |  | (10,886,000 | ) |  |  | (6,621,000 | )

Management has considered the Company’s history of cumulative net losses and estimated future operating acitivity and has concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefits of its U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been established against deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company reevaluates the positive and negative evidence at each reporting period. The Company’s valuation allowance increased during 2020 by approximately $4.3 million primarily due to the generation of net operating loss carryforwards and stock based compensation. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of $32.1 million and $21.3 million, respectively, which may be available to offset future income tax liabilities. The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“ TCJA”) will generally allow losses incurred after 2017 to be carried over indefinitely, but will generally limit the net operating loss deduction to the lesser of the net operating loss carryover or 80% of a corporation’s taxable income (subject to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended). Also, there will be no carryback for losses incurred after 2017. Losses incurred prior to 2018 will generally be deductible to the extent of the lesser of a corporation’s net operating loss carryover or 100% of a corporation’s taxable income and be available for twenty years from the period the loss was generated. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company also had similar amounts of U.S. state net operating loss carryforwards, which may be available to offset future income tax liabilities and expire at various dates through 2040. Utilization of the U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation under Section 382 and Section 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and corresponding provisions of state law, due to ownership changes that have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. These ownership changes may limit the amount of net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax liabilities, respectively. The Company has not completed a study to assess whether a change of ownership has occurred, or whether there have been multiple ownership changes since its formation. Any limitation may result in expiration of a portion of the net operating loss carryforwards or research and development tax credit carryforwards before utilization. The Company is subject to U.S. federal and state tax examinations by tax authorities for years 2017 through present. As of December 31, 2020 there currently no pending tax examinations.
