VYST Tax NOL = $18.6 Million Per its 10-K...

Just to make it very clear. I did not buy VYST because of any Tax Net Operating Loss (NOL). I bought VYST because of the acquisition/merger of Rotmans Furniture that's coming into VYST that is going to help propel the company to the NASDAQ.

My point for mentioning the Accumulated Deficit was to show how it can benefit VYST by positioning the company to have some Tax NOLs since some were trying to twist it to be something of the contrary.

Well, per what's indicated within their last 10-K filed with the SEC, the Tax NOL is currently $18.6 Million which was reduced down to that amount because of the change of ownership with Steve Rotman coming on board to takeover the company per the IRS Code within Section 382 as I had explained in the post below:

The utilization of our tax losses could be substantially limited if we experience an ownership change as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.

Because of net operating losses we have experienced for federal income tax purposes at December 31, 2017, we had federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forwards of approximately $18.6 million ($17.8 million for 2016) pretax available to offset future taxable income. Our ability to utilize NOL carry-forwards to reduce future taxable income may be limited under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code if certain ownership changes in our Company occur during a rolling three-year period. These ownership changes include purchases of common stock under share repurchase programs, the offering of stock by us, the purchase or sale of our stock by 5% shareholders, as defined in the Treasury regulations, or the issuance or exercise of rights to acquire our stock. If such ownership changes by 5% shareholders result in aggregate increases that exceed 50 percentage points during the three-year period, then Section 382 imposes an annual limitation on the amount of our taxable income that may be offset by our NOL carry-forwards or tax credit carry-forwards at the time of ownership change. The limitation may affect the amount of our deferred income tax asset and, depending on the limitation, a significant portion of our NOL carry-forwards or tax credit carry-forwards could expire before we are able to use them. In such an event, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be adversely affected.
