NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

 

Through June 30, 2010, the Company operated exclusively in Australia. The Company was wholly subject to Australian income tax laws and regulations, which are administered by the Australian Taxation Office for the years ended June 30, 2010 and all prior years.

 

On November 23, 2010, the Company was incorporated in the state of Delaware. In January 2011, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Propanc PTY LTD on a one-for-one basis with Propanc PTY LTD becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of these transactions, the Company is subject to the income tax laws of both the United States and Australia for the years ended June 30, 2013 through June 30, 2020.

 

The reconciliation of income tax expense computed at the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% to the income tax provision for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 is as follows:

 

    Year Ended  
    June 30, 2020     June 30, 2019  
                 
Taxes under statutory US tax rates   $ (995,552 )   $ (1,209,258 )
Increase (decrease) in valuation allowance     1,137,716       1,394,444

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act, among other things, permits NOL carryovers and carrybacks to offset 100% of taxable income for taxable years beginning before 2021. In addition, the CARES Act allows NOLs incurred in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate a refund of previously paid income taxes. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the CARES Act, but due to sustained losses, the NOL carryback provision of the CARES Act would not yield a benefit to us.

 

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities consist of the following:

At June 30, 2020, the Company had U.S. net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $8,977,683 that may be offset against future taxable income, subject to limitation under IRC Section 382. At June 30, 2020, the Company had Australian net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $20,194,901 million which can be carried forward without expiration. No tax benefit has been reported in the June 30, 2020 and 2019 consolidated financial statements due to the uncertainty surrounding the realizability of the benefit, based on a more likely than not criteria and in consideration of available positive and negative evidence.

 

Management has determined that the realization of the net deferred tax asset is not assured and has created a valuation allowance for the entire amount of such benefits.

 

The Company follows ASC 740-10, which provides guidance for the recognition and measurement of certain tax positions in an enterprise’s financial statements. Recognition involves a determination whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination with the presumption that the tax position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information.

 

The Company applied the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold to all tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, which resulted in no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as additional income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. There were no changes in the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits during the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company did not recognize any interest or penalties during fiscal 2020 or 2019 related to unrecognized tax benefits.

 

The income tax returns filed for the tax years from inception will be subject to examination by the relevant taxing authorities.
