The Company intends to be treated as a United States corporation for United States federal income tax purposes under section 7874 of the U.S. Tax Code and is expected to be subject to United States federal income tax. However, for Canadian tax purposes, the Company is expected, regardless of any application of section 7874 of the U.S. Tax Code, to be treated as a Canadian resident company (as defined in the Canadian Income Tax Act for Canadian income tax purposes). Accordingly, Horizon will be subject to taxation in both Canada and the United States.

 

The following table summarized the components of deferred tax:

A valuation allowance has been recognized to offset the entire effect of the Company’s net deferred tax asset as the realization of this deferred tax benefit is uncertain. The valuation allowance increased by $3,223 for the year-ended May 31, 2025 (May 31, 2024 - $1,109). This is primarily due to the increase of federal, provincial, and state net operating losses.

 

The Company has analyzed filing positions in all of the federal, provincial, and state jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded.
