ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic and current reports that we file with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f)
and 15d-15(f)
of the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on our evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2020.
Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
Airgain, Inc.:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Airgain, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
/s/ KPMG, LLP
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2012.

Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Airgain, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in the State of California on March 20, 1995, and reincorporated in the State of Delaware on August 15, 2016. The Company is a leading provider of advanced antenna technologies used to enable high performance wireless networking across a broad range of devices and markets, including consumer, enterprise, and automotive. The Company designs, develops, and engineers its antenna products for original equipment and design manufacturers worldwide. The Company’s headquarters is in San Diego, California with office space and research, design, and test facilities in the United States, United Kingdom, China, and Taiwan.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current year financial statements including reclassification of accrued vacation, accrued payroll and other payroll accrual balances from Accrued liabilities and other to Accrued compensation in the balance sheet.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include valuation of intangible assets.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842)
, which requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use
assets. Because of the Company’s emerging growth status, ASU 2016-02
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company will adopt the new accounting standard using the modified retrospective transition option as of the effective date on January 1, 2021. The Company’s initial evaluation of its current leases does not indicate that the adoption of this standard will have an impact on its statements of operations. The Company expects that the adoption of the standard will have an impact on its balance sheets for the recognition of certain operating leases as right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
. This standard changes the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10,
Effective Dates
which updated the effective dates of adoption of ASU 2016-13
.
ASU 2016-13
is effective, for Smaller Reporting Companies, for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Companies are required to adopt the standard using a modified retrospective adoption method. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the standard on its financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04,
Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
, which simplifies the test for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2 which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation and may require the services of valuation experts. An entity will, therefore, perform the goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. An entity still has the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The Company early adopted ASU 2017-04
on January 1, 2020 with no impact on its financial reporting.

Table of Contents
Airgain, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05,
Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Targeted Transition Relief
, which provides entities that have certain instruments within the scope of ASC 326-20,
Financial Instruments-Credit Losses
-Measured at Amortized Cost, with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for eligible instruments. The effective date and transition methodology for this standard are the same as in ASU 2016-13.
The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the standard on its financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12,
Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes
, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in the ASU include removing exceptions to incremental intra-period tax allocation of losses and gains from different financial statement components, exceptions to the method of recognizing income taxes on interim period losses, and exceptions to deferred tax liability recognition related to foreign subsidiary investments. In addition, the ASU requires that entities recognize franchise tax based on an incremental method and requires an entity to evaluate the accounting for step-ups
in the tax basis of goodwill as inside or outside of a business combination. Based on the Company’s emerging growth company status the amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, including adoption in interim or annual periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. We have not early adopted this ASU as of December 31, 2020. The ASU is currently not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Segment Information
The Company’s operations are located primarily in the United States and most of its assets are located in San Diego, California and Scottsdale, Arizona. The Company operates in one segment related to the sale of antenna products and testing services.
The Company’s chief operating decision-maker is its chief executive officer, who reviews operating results on an aggregate basis and manages the Company’s operations as a single operating segment.
Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
Cash equivalents are comprised of short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase.
Short-term investments consist predominantly of commercial paper, corporate debt securities, U.S. Treasury securities, and asset-backed
securities. The Company classifies short-term investments based on the facts and circumstances surrounding the investments at the time of purchase and evaluates such classification as of each balance sheet date. There were no short-term investments at December 31, 2020, and at December 31, 2019, all short-term investments were classified as available-for-sale. Unrealized gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are included in accumulated other comprehensive income—a component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method and are included in other income in the statement of operations. The Company evaluates its investments to determine whether those with unrealized loss positions are other than temporarily impaired. Impairments are considered to be other than temporary if they are related to deterioration in credit risk or if it is likely that the Company will sell the securities before recovery of their cost basis.
Restricted Cash
As of December 31, 2020, the Company has $ 0.2 million in cash on deposit to secure certain lease commitments. Restricted cash is recorded in Other assets in the Company’s balance sheet.
Trade Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivable is adjusted for all known uncollectible accounts. The policy for determining when receivables are past due or delinquent is based on the contractual terms agreed upon. Accounts are written off once all collection efforts have been exhausted. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established when, in the opinion of management, collection of the account is doubtful. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $ 0 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Notes to Financial Statements
Inventory
The majority of the Company’s products are manufactured by third parties that retain ownership of the inventory until title is transferred to the customer at the shipping point. In certain instances shipping terms are delivery at place and the Company is responsible for arranging transportation and delivery of goods ready for unloading at the named place. In those instances the Company bears all risk involved in bringing the goods to the named place and records the related goods in transit to the customer as inventory on the accompanying balance sheet.
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. For items manufactured by the Company cost is determined using the weighted average cost method. For items manufactured by third parties, cost is determined using the first-in,
first-out
method (FIFO). Any adjustments to reduce the cost of inventories to their net realizable value are recognized in earnings in the current period. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s inventories consist primarily of raw materials. Provisions for excess and obsolete inventories are estimated based on product life cycles, quality issues, and historical experience and were $ 10,000 and $ 0 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to fifteen years . The estimated useful lives for leasehold improvements are determined as either the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term, whichever is shorter. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When assets are sold (or otherwise disposed of) the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss on the disposal of property and equipment is classified as other income or expense.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired. The
Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually on
December 1 st and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. The Company completed its annual assessment for goodwill impairment in
December 2020 and determined that goodwill is
no t impaired as of December
31 ,
2020 .
Intangibles
The Company’s identifiable intangible assets are comprised of acquired developed technologies, customer relationships, tradenames, and non-compete
agreements. The cost of the identifiable intangible assets with finite lives is amortized on a straight-line basis over the assets’ respective estimated useful lives. The Company periodically re-evaluates
the original assumptions and rationale utilized in the establishment of the carrying value and estimated lives of long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets. Long-lived assets and finite-lived intangibles are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If an asset is considered to be impaired the impairment recognized is equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value.
Revenue Recognition
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
, and the related amendments, which are codified into ASC 606, using the modified retrospective method. The Company generates revenue mainly from the sale of antenna products. A portion of revenue is generated from service agreements with certain customers. The revenue generated from service contracts is insignificant. The Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of control of the promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. Control passes to the customers either when the products are shipped to or received by the customer, based on the terms of the specific agreement with the customer. The Company incurs selling expenses to obtain design wins prior to revenue recognition which is not a deliverable of revenue recognition.
The Company records revenue based on a five-step model in accordance with ASC 606 whereby the company (i) identifies the contract(s) with the customer, (ii) identifies the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determines the transaction price, (iv) allocates the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract and (v) recognizes the revenue when (as) the entity satisfies performance obligations. The Company only applies the five-step model when it is probable that the entity will collect substantially all of the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer.

Notes to Financial Statements
For product sales, each purchase order, along with existing customer agreements, when applicable, represents a contract from a customer and each product sold represents a distinct performance obligation. The contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The majority of the Company’s revenue is recognized on a “point-in-time”
basis when control passes to the customer. The revenue from service contracts is recognized “over time”. A portion of the Company’s sales is made through distributors under agreements which allow for pricing credits and/or rights of return under certain circumstances. Pricing credits and returns under these provisions have been insignificant; accordingly, our allowance for sales returns and pricing credits is insignificant.
The Company’s contracts with customers do not typically include extended payment terms. Payment terms vary by contract and type of customer and generally range from 30 to 90 days from delivery. The Company provides assurance-type warranties on all product sales ranging from one to two years. The Company accrues for the estimated warranty costs at the time of sale based on historical warranty experience plus any known or expected changes in warranty
exposure. Warranty costs have been insignificant; accordingly, our warranty reserve is insignificant.
Although
customers may place orders for products that are delivered on multiple dates in different quarterly reporting periods; all of the orders are normally scheduled within one year from the order date. The Company has opted to not disclose the portion of revenues allocated to partially unsatisfied performance obligations, which represent products to be shipped within 12 months under open customer purchase orders, at the end of the current reporting period as allowed under ASC 606. The Company has also elected to record sales commissions when incurred, pursuant to the practical expedient under ASC 340, as the period over which the sales commission asset that would have been recognized is less than one year. Shipping and handling costs are immaterial and reported in in operating expenses in the statement of operations.
There were no contract assets at December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, and 2019, the Company recorded $ 19,000 and $ 22,000 of contract liabilities, respectively
.
Shipping and Transportation Costs
Shipping and other transportation costs—expensed as incurred—were $ 0.2 million
and $ 0.3 million
for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These costs are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs—expensed as incurred—were $ 0.1 million
for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These costs are included in sales and marketing expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
Income Taxes
The Company records income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. When applicable a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset when it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Airgain, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in general and administrative expenses.
Stock-Based Compensation
We recognize compensation costs related to stock options and restricted stock units granted to employees and directors based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. We estimate the grant date fair value, and the resulting stock-based compensation expense, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The grant date fair value of stock-based awards is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the respective award.
The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model are as follows:
•
Fair value of our common stock
. The Company’s common stock is valued by reference to the publicly traded price of our common stock.
•
Expected term
. The expected term represents the period of time stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding.
•
Expected volatility
. From 2016 through 2017, the Company estimated expected volatility using weighted average historical volatilities of comparable publicly traded companies within our industry. Beginning 2018, the Company began using its historical share prices along with volatilities of the selected comparable companies, to calculate a weighted average volatility.
•
Risk-free interest rate
. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant for zero coupon U.S. Treasury notes with maturities approximately equal to the expected term.
•
Expected dividend
. The expected dividend is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid dividends and have no current plans to pay any dividends.
Compensation cost is expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the entire reward. The Company recognizes forfeitures when incurred.
Fair Value Measurements
The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Fair value measurements are market-based measurements, not entity-specific measurements. Therefore, fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company follows a three-level hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values. The basis for fair value measurements for each level within the hierarchy is described below:
•
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
•
Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable in active markets.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss). Accumulated other comprehensive income on the balance sheet at December 31, 2019, includes unrealized gains and losses on the Company’s available-for-sale
securities.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the period plus amounts representing the dilutive effect of securities that are convertible into common stock. The Company calculates diluted income (loss) per common share using the treasury stock method.

Level 2 fair value estimates are based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
The Company’s investments were primarily valued based upon one or more valuations reported by its investment accounting and reporting service provider. The investment service provider values the securities using a hierarchical security pricing models that relies primarily on valuations provided by a third-party pricing vendor. Such valuations may be based on trade prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) or valuation models using inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2 inputs), such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, yield curve, volatility factors, credit spreads, default rates, loss severity, current market and contractual prices for underlying instruments or debt, broker and dealer quotes, as well as other relevant economic measures. The Company performs certain procedures to corroborate the fair value of its holdings, including comparing valuations obtained from its investment service provider with other pricing sources to validate the reasonableness of the valuations.

The Company considers the declines in market value of its short-term investments to be temporary in nature. Fair values were determined for each individual security in the investment portfolio. When evaluating an investment for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors such as length of time and extent to which fair value has been below its cost basis; the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto; changes in market interest rates and the Company’s intent to sell; or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the investment before recovery of the investment’s cost basis. As of December 31, 2020 ,
the Company does not consider any of its investments to be other-than temporarily impaired.

The Company has established a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty surrounding
the realization of such assets. The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of the deferred tax assets. At such time it is determined that it is more likely than not that deferred assets are realizable, the valuation allowance will be reduced. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance of $ 8.5 million as of December 31, 2020 as it does not believe it is more likely than not that certain deferred tax assets will be realized due to the recent history of both pre-tax book income and losses, the lack of taxable income available in carryback periods or feasible tax-planning strategies, the limited existing taxable temporary differences, and the subjective nature of forecasting future taxable income into the future. The Company increased its valuation allowance by approximately $ 1.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2020.

At December 31, 2020 the Company had federal and California tax loss carryforwards of approximately $ 19.9 million, and $ 5.7 million, respectively. The federal loss generated post 2018 of $ 2.6 million will carryforward indefinitely and be available to offset up to 80 % of future taxable income each year.
The remaining federal and state net operating loss
carryforwards
begin to expire in 2022 and 2028 , respectively, if unused.
At December 31, 2020 the Company had federal and state tax credit carryforwards
of approximately $ 1.3 million, and $ 1.4 million, respectively, after reduction for uncertain tax positions. The federal credits will begin to expire in 2026 , if unused, and the state credits carryforwards
indefinitely.
Pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (IRC), specifically IRC §382 and IRC §383, the Company’s ability to use net operating loss and research and development tax credit carryforwards
(“tax attribute carryforwards
”) to offset future taxable income is limited if the Company experiences a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50 % within a three -year testing period. The Company has not completed an ownership change analysis pursuant to IRC Section 382 for taxable years ended after December 31, 2012. If ownership changes within the meaning of IRC Section 382 are identified as having occurred subsequent to 2012, the amount of remaining tax attribute carryforwards
available to offset future taxable income and income tax expense in future years may be significantly restricted or eliminated. Further, the Company’s deferred tax assets associated with such tax attributes could be significantly reduced upon realization of an ownership change within the meaning of IRC §382.

The unrecognized tax benefit amounts are reflected in the determination of the Company’s deferred tax assets. If recognized, $
9,000 of these amounts would impact company’s effective tax rate. The Company does not foresee material changes to its uncertain tax benefits within the next twelve months.
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company has an accrual for interest or penalties of $ 61,000 and $ 3,000 on the Company’s balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and has recognized interest and/or penalties of $ 57,000 and $ 1,000 in the Statement of Operations for each of the two years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Due to the existence of federal and state net operating loss and credit carryovers, the Company’s tax years that remain open and subject to examination by tax jurisdiction are years 2000 and forward for federal and years 2006 and forward for the state of California.
