INCOME TAXES

The Company provides for income taxes using the asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The issuance of shares in connection with the Company’s IPO, as well as prior share issuances, may result in limitations on the utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards under IRS section 382. As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company had a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded zero income tax expense. No tax benefit has been recorded in relation to the pre-tax losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, due to full valuation allowance to offset any deferred tax assets.
