Although the Company recognized a loss before provision for income taxes for the period ended December 31, 2013, no tax benefit related to the loss has been recognized because the realization of the tax benefit is uncertain. The Company has, however, recognized the tax benefit of the rollover of deferred taxes.


Income taxes differed from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate of 34% to income (loss) before income taxes as follows:

The Company had net operating loss carryforwards of $10,890,452 at December 31, 2013 which expire in 2033.


Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes that, except for the benefit of the net operations loss carry forwards, it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance of 100% of the tax benefit applicable to the net operating loss carry forwards at December 31, 2013 because the realization of the benefit of these losses is uncertain.


The IRS completed an examination of Symon's income tax returns for the years ended January 31, 2009 and 2010 during 2012. The examination did not result in any material adjustments to Symon's tax returns. Subsequent to the examinations, the Company has determined that there are no uncertain tax positions and therefore no accruals have been made. There are no uncertain tax positions related to the successor. Symon's open tax years are 2011 through 2013. RMG's open tax years are 2008 through 2013.


With respect to state and local jurisdictions and countries outside of the United States, the Company and its subsidiaries are typically subject to examination for three to six years after the income tax returns have been filed.
