A valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company recorded a valuation allowance at April 30, 2016 and 2015 due to the uncertainty of realization. Management believes that based upon its projection of future taxable operating income for the foreseeable future, it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to realize the tax benefit associated with deferred tax assets. The net change in the valuation allowance during the year ended April 30, 2016 was an increase of $828,574.

 

At April 30, 2016, the Company had $22,322,804 of net operating loss carryforwards which will expire from 2031 to 2036. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of April 30, 2016, tax years 2012 through 2015 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the Internal Revenue Service for any of the open tax years.
