In October 2019, the Internal Revenue Service concluded its audit of the September 30, 2015 tax year with no changes. The Federal and state filings remain subject to examination by tax authorities for tax periods ending after September 30, 2015.

The impact of adopting ASC 610-20 was modified in the quarter ended March 31, 2019 to reflect the deferred tax impact of this adoption. The deferred tax asset related to the deferred gain on sale has been decreased by $3,704,000 with a corresponding decrease to retained earnings in the quarter ended March 31, 2019, offsetting the October 1, 2018 increase to retained earnings for the ASC 610-20 implementation (see Note 7. “Derivative Asset and Derivative Liabilities/Deferred Gain on Sale”).

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (H.R. 748) (the “CARES Act”). Among the changes to the U.S. federal income tax rules, the CARES Act restored net operating loss carryback rules that were eliminated by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modified the limit on the deduction for net interest expense, and accelerated the timeframe for refunds of AMT credit carryovers. The Company does not expect the CARES Act will have any material impact on the Company’s cash tax liability or financial condition.
