The reduction from 8 billion to 6 billion was due to ownership change limiting use and letting it expire. It's stated in the 10-Q.

On March 19, 2012, WMIH emerged from bankruptcy. Prior to emergence, WMI abandoned the stock of WMB, thereby generating a worthless stock deduction of approximately $8.37 billion which gave rise to a NOL for the year ended December 31, 2012. Under Section 382 of the Code, and based on the Company’s analysis, we believe that the Company experienced an “ownership change” (generally defined as a greater than 50% change (by value) in our equity ownership over a three-year period) on March 19, 2012, and our ability to use our pre-ownership change NOLs and other pre-change tax attributes against our post-change income was limited. The Section 382 limitation is applied annually so as to limit the use of our pre-change NOLs to an amount that generally equals the value of our stock immediately before the ownership change multiplied by a designated federal long-term tax-exempt rate. Due to applicable limitations under Section 382 and a reduction of tax attributes due to cancellation of indebtedness, a portion of these NOLs were limited and will expire unused. We believe that the total available and utilizable NOL carry forward at December 31, 2015 is approximately $6.0 billion. At June 30, 2016, there was no limitation on the use of these NOLs. These NOLs will begin to expire in 2031. The Company’s ability to utilize the NOLs or realize any benefits related to the NOLs is subject to a number of risks. (see Part I-Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015).
