The tax benefit for the period presented is offset by a valuation allowance established against deferred tax assets arising from operating losses and other temporary differences, the realization of which could not be considered more likely than not. In future periods, tax benefits and related tax deferred assets will be recognized when management considers realization of such amounts to be more likely than not.

At May 31, 2014, the Company had available net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $29,000,000 which expire beginning in 2022.

The Company’s income tax returns remain subject to examination by all tax jurisdictions for tax years May 31, 2011 through 2013.
