| INCOME TAXES | NOTE 9—INCOME TAXES
There are no taxes payable as of June 30, 2026, or December 31, 2025.
Some of the federal tax carry forwards will expire at various dates through 2037. Generally, these can be carried forward and applied against future taxable income at the tax rate applicable at that time. We are currently using an effective income tax rate of 21% for our projected available net operating loss carry-forward. No tax benefit has been recognized in the six months ending June 30, 2026, due to the uncertainty surrounding the realizability of the benefit. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits.
Utilization of the net operating losses (NOL) carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation as required by Section 382 of the IRC, due to ownership change of the company that could occur in the future, as well as similar state provisions. In general, an “ownership change” as defined by Section 382 results from a transaction or series of transactions over a three-year period resulting in an ownership change of more than 50 percentage points of the outstanding stock of a company by certain stockholders. These ownership changes may limit the amount of NOL carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income. Assuming the Merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement is consummated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, these limitations will apply for tax periods following the Merger.
In accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets, if based on the weight of available evidence, some or all of the deferred tax assets may or will not be realized. The Company did not utilize any NOL deductions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.
