Deferred income taxes reflect the net effects of loss and credit carryforwards and temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of our deferred tax assets and liabilities for federal and state income taxes are as follows (in thousands):

         
   June 30, 
   2025   2024 
Deferred tax assets:          
Federal and state NOL carryforward   $23   $23 
Research and other credits    65    65 
Reserves    170    146 
Accruals    436    309 
Stock based compensation    1,096    1,008 
Section 174 capitalization    756    738 
Lease liability    353    488 
Inventory    614    596 
Other    12    5 
Total gross deferred tax assets   $3,525   $3,378 
Less: valuation allowance    (90)   (90)
Total deferred tax assets    3,435    3,288 
Deferred tax liabilities:          
Property and equipment, principally due to differing depreciation methods   $(651)  $(675)
Right of use asset    (313)   (439)
Deferred state tax    (61)   (78)
Unrealized gains    (995)   (541)
Total gross deferred tax liabilities    (2,020)   (1,733)
Net deferred tax assets   $1,415   $1,555 

 

Realization of our deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. As of June 30, 2025, our deferred tax asset valuation allowance primarily consists of state net operating loss carryforwards for states in which we have filed a final return. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we recorded a net decrease to our valuation allowance of $0 and $1,000, respectively, on the basis of management’s reassessment of the amount of our deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized.

 

As of June 30, 2025, we did not have any net operating losses for federal and state income tax purposes for state jurisdictions in which we currently operate. We have no federal or state research and development and alternative minimum tax credit carry forwards at June 30, 2025.

 

As of June 30, 2025, we have accrued $159,000 of unrecognized tax benefits related to federal and state income tax matters that would reduce our income tax expense if recognized. If we are eventually able to recognize our uncertain tax positions, our effective tax rate would be reduced. Any adjustment to our uncertain tax positions would result in a cash outlay.

 

Information with respect to our accrual for unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands):

 

         
   June 30, 
   2025   2024 
Unrecognized tax benefits:          
Beginning balance   $262   $345 
    Additions based on federal tax positions related to the current year    11    15 
    Additions based on state tax positions related to the current year    11    17 
    Additions (reductions) for tax positions of prior years    (10)   3 
    Reductions due to lapses in statutes of limitation    (115)   (118)
Ending balance   $159   $262 

 

Although it is reasonably possible that certain unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease within the next twelve months due to tax examinations, settlement activities, expirations of statute of limitations, or the impact on recognition and measurement considerations related to the results of published tax cases or other similar activities, we do not anticipate any significant changes to unrecognized tax benefits over the next twelve months.

 

We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense when applicable. As of June 30, 2025, $28,000 of interest applicable to our unrecognized tax benefits has been accrued.

 

We are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income tax of California and Colorado. We are currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended June 30, 2022, and later.  However, because of our prior net operating losses and research credit carryovers, our tax years from June 30, 2020, are open to audit.

 

Additionally, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025, or the 2025 Act, enacted on July 4, 2025, makes changes to U.S. corporate income taxes including reinstating the option to claim 100% accelerated depreciation deductions on qualified property, with retroactive application beginning January 20, 2025 and immediate expensing of research and development costs, with retroactive application beginning January 1, 2025. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the 2025 Act to our financial position and results of operations for income tax purposes for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.
