Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies | 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations. General Tattooed Chef, Inc. was originally incorporated in Delaware on May 4, 2018 under the name of Forum Merger II Corporation (“Forum”), as a special purpose acquisition company for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisitions, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more business. On October 15, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), Forum consummated the transactions contemplated within the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 11, 2020 as amended on August 10, 2020, (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Forum, Myjojo, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Myjojo (Delaware)”), Sprout Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Forum (“Merger Sub”), and Salvatore Galletti, in his capacity as the holder representative (the “Holder Representative”). The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are referred to herein as the “Transaction”. Upon the consummation of the Transaction, Merger Sub merged with and into Myjojo (Delaware) (the “Merger”), with Myjojo (Delaware) surviving the merger in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law. Immediately upon the completion of the Transaction, Myjojo (Delaware) became a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Forum. In connection with the Closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), Forum changed its name to Tattooed Chef, Inc. (“Tattooed Chef”). Tattooed Chef’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “TTCF” on October 16, 2020 (see Note 3 Reverse Recapitalization ). Tattooed Chef and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) are principally engaged in the manufacturing of plant-based foods including, but not limited to, ready-to-cook bowls, zucchini spirals, riced cauliflower, acai and smoothie bowls, cauliflower crust pizza, wood fire crusted pizza, handheld burritos, bars and quesadillas, primarily in the United States and Italy. About Myjojo and Subsidiaries Myjojo, Inc. was an S corporation formed under the laws of California (“Myjojo (California)”) on February 26, 2019 to facilitate a corporate reorganization of Ittella International Inc. On March 27, 2019, the sole stockholder of Ittella International, Inc. contributed all of his share ownership of Ittella International, Inc. to Myjojo (California) in exchange for 100% interest in the latter, becoming Myjojo (California)’s sole stockholder. Ittella International, Inc. was formed in California as a tax pass-through entity and subsequently converted on April 10, 2019 to a limited liability company, Ittella International, LLC (“Ittella International”). On April 15, 2019, UMB Capital Corporation (“UMB”), a financial institution acquired a 12.50% non-controlling interest in Ittella International (see Note 3 Reverse Recapitalization and Note 4 Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest ). Ittella’s Chef, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of California on July 20, 2017 as a qualified Subchapter S subsidiary and a wholly owned subsidiary of Ittella International. Ittella’s Chef, Inc. was formed as a tax passthrough entity for purposes of holding Ittella International’s 70% ownership interest in Ittella Italy, S.R.L. (“Ittella Italy”) (see Note 3 Reverse Recapitalization ). On March 15, 2019, Ittella’s Chef, Inc. was converted to a limited liability company, Ittella’s Chef, LLC (“Ittella’s Chef”). On May 21, 2020, Myjojo (Delaware) was formed with Salvatore Galletti owning all of the shares of common stock. On May 27, 2020, Myjojo (California) merged into Myjojo (Delaware) with Myjojo (Delaware) issuing shares of common stock to the sole stockholder of Myjojo (California). As discussed in Note 3 Reverse Recapitalization , in connection with the Transaction and as a condition to the closing (the “Closing”), Myjojo (Delaware) entered into a Contribution Agreement with the minority members of Ittella International and the minority shareholders of Ittella Italy. Under the Contribution Agreement, the minority holders contributed all of their equity interests in Ittella International to Myjojo (Delaware) and Ittella Italy to Ittella’s Chef in exchange for Myjojo (Delaware) stock (the “Restructuring”). The Restructuring was consummated prior to the Transaction. The shares of Myjojo (Delaware) were exchanged for shares of Forum’s common stock upon consummation of the Transaction. On May 14, 2021, the Company acquired New Mexico Food Distributors, Inc. (“NMFD”) and Karsten Tortilla Factory, LLC (“Karsten”) in an all-cash transaction for approximately $34.1 million (collectively, the “NMFD Transaction”). NMFD and Karsten were privately held companies based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. NMFD produces and sells frozen and ready-to-eat Mexican food products to retail and food service customers through its network of distributors in the United States. NMFD processes its products in two leased facilities located in New Mexico. See Note 9 Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions . On September 28, 2021, Tattooed Chef formed BCI Acquisition, Inc. (“BCI”). On December 21, 2021, BCI acquired substantially all of the assets, and assumed certain specified liabilities from Belmont Confections, Inc. (“Belmont”) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $16.7 million. Belmont was a privately held company based in Youngstown, Ohio, and specialized in the development and manufacturing of private label nutritional bars. See Note 9 Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions . On August 19, 2022, the Company through its subsidiary, TTCF-NM Holdings Inc., (“NM Holdings”) entered into an asset purchase agreement with Desert Premium Group, LLC (“DPG”) to acquire certain manufacturing, production, and storage assets, organized workforce as well as assumed a lease for a manufacturing facility located in Albuquerque for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $10.5 million (“DPG Acquisition”). See Note 9 Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions . Going Concern. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had total cash of $5.8 million and an accumulated deficit of $164.2 million. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company had a net loss of $141.5 million and net cash used in operating activities of $82.7 million. The Company’s recent financial performance has been adversely impacted by the inflationary pressures on labor, freight and material costs as well as marketing expenditures on the Tattooed Chef brand investment to raise brand awareness. In addition, as disclosed in Note 16 Indebtedness, the Company expanded its primary line of credit (the “Credit Facility”) from $25.0 million to $40.0 million in August 2022. The Credit Facility contains a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a minimum negative $30.0 million of consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the trailing 2-quarters period ended December 31, 2022. The Company was not in compliance with the adjusted EBITDA minimum requirement as of December 31, 2022 and as of the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. Further, as disclosed in Note 16 Indebtedness, $2.7 million note payable under NMFD and $1.8 million note payable under Ittella Properties LLC (“Ittella Properties”), were not in compliance with the financial covenants as of December 31, 2022 and as of the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. As a result, the debt and notes payable have been classified as current liabilities within the consolidated balance sheet. The Company does not have sufficient resources to meet obligations as they come due for the 12 months after the date the financial statements are issued. In order to alleviate these conditions and or events that may raise substantial doubt about the entities ability to continue as a going concern, management plans to continue to closely monitor its operating forecast and pursue additional sources of outside capital. If the Company is unable to (a) improve its operating results, (b) obtain additional outside capital on terms that are acceptable to the Company to fund the Company’s operations, and/or (c) secure a waiver or avoid forbearance from the lender if the Company is continually unable to remain in compliance with the financial covenants required by Credit Facility and note payable in the United States (see Note 16 Indebtedness), the Company will have to make significant changes to its operating plan, such as delay and reduce marketing expenditures, reduce investments in new products, reduce its capital expenditures, reduce its sale and distribution infrastructure, reduce its workforce or otherwise significantly reduce the scope of its business. Moreover, if the Company fails to secure a waiver or avoid forbearance from the lender, the failure could accelerate the repayment of the outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility and note payable in the United States, or the exercise of other rights or remedies the lender may have under the loan documents and applicable law. While management believes the Company will be able to secure additional outside capital, no assurances can be provided that such capital will be obtained or on terms that are acceptable to the Company. Furthermore, given the inherent uncertainties associated with the Company’s growth strategy and as the Company is currently not in compliance with the financial covenants required by the Credit Facility and note payable in the United States, management has concluded that substantial doubt exists regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for 12 months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and payments of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Basis of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tattooed Chef and its subsidiaries in which Tattooed Chef has a controlling interest directly or indirectly, and variable interest entities for which Tattooed Chef is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Basis of Presentation. These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Transaction (See Note 3 Reverse Recapitalization ) was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP (the “Reverse Recapitalization”). Under this method, Forum was treated as the “acquired” company (“Accounting Acquiree”) and Myjojo (Delaware), the accounting acquirer, was assumed to have issued stock for the net assets of Forum, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Forum are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations prior to the reverse recapitalization are those of Myjojo (Delaware). The shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share available for common stockholders, prior to the reverse recapitalization, have been retroactively restated. Business Combinations. Business acquisitions are accounted for in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The Company applies a practical screen test to determine when a set would not be considered a business if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar assets under ASC 805. ASC 805 requires the reporting entity to identify the acquirer, determine the acquisition date, recognize and measure the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity, and recognize and measure goodwill or a gain from the purchase. The acquiree’s results are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their fair values and the excess of the purchase price over the amounts assigned is recorded as goodwill. Adjustments to fair value assessments are recorded to goodwill over the measurement period (not longer than twelve months). The acquisition method also requires that acquisition-related transaction and post-acquisition restructuring costs be charged to expense. The Company has completed two business acquisitions during recent two years. See Note 9 Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions . Restatement and Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements. The consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ending December 31, 2021 were previously restated for the correction of material errors and the consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2020 were revised for the correction of immaterial errors in the Company’s Form 10-K/A filed on November 17, 2022. Cash. The Company’s cash may be in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts. Foreign Currency. The Company’s functional currency is the United States dollar for its U.S. entities. Ittella Italy’s functional currency is the Euro. Transactions in currency other than the functional currency are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of each entity are included in results of operations in (loss) income from operations as incurred. The accompanying consolidated financial statements are expressed in United States dollars. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at period-end rates of exchange. Revenues, costs and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Equity adjustments resulting from translating foreign currency financial statements are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The Company conducts business globally and is therefore exposed to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates, specifically the Euro to US dollar. To limit the exposure related to foreign currency changes, the Company entered into foreign currency exchange forward contracts starting in 2020. The Company does not enter into contracts for speculative purposes. Under these facilities, the Company has access to open foreign exchange forward contract instruments to purchase a specific amount of funds in Euros and to settle, on an agreed-upon future date, in a corresponding amount of funds in United States dollars. These derivatives are not designated as hedging instruments. Gains and losses on the contracts are included in other (expense) income, net, and offset foreign exchange gains and losses from the short-term effects of foreign currency fluctuations on assets and liabilities, such as inventory purchases, receivables and payables, which are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the reporting entity. These derivative instruments generally have maturities of up to 12 months. Accounts Receivable. See Note 6 Accounts Receivable, net Inventory. Inventory consists of raw materials and packaging materials, work in process and finished goods. Work in process consists of certain ingredients that have been chopped or frozen, and to be used in production. Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a weighted average basis. Inventory is initially measured at cost and consists of the sum of the applicable expenditures and charges directly and indirectly incurred to bring products to their existing condition and location. These costs can include purchase costs and any other charges necessary to prepare the items for production. For work in process and finished goods, these costs normally include those incurred directly or indirectly in the production of inventory (i.e., direct labor and production overheads or conversion costs), and other expenses (i.e., inbound freight, transportation and handling charges, taxes and duties). Overhead costs are allocated to the units produced within the reporting period, while abnormal costs are charged to current operations as incurred. Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over a period considered adequate to amortize the total cost over the useful lives of the assets, which range from 5 to 15 years for machinery and equipment, 5 to 7 years for furniture and fixtures, 20 to 40 years for buildings, and 3 to 5 years for computer equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the improvements. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Renewals and enhancements are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining life of the specific property unit. When the Company retires or disposes of property, plant or equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the Company’s accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Goodwill. The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually, as of September 30, or more frequently if circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The Company performs the impairment testing by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting unit (currently only one reporting unit) is less than its carrying amount. In assessing the qualitative factors, the Company considers the impact of certain key factors including macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, management turnover, changes in regulation, litigation matters, changes in enterprise value, and overall financial performance. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the single reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company tests for impairment by comparing the estimated fair value of the single reporting unit with its carrying amount. The Company performs a quantitative impairment test using fair values derived either from the Company’s market capitalization (as the Company has a single reporting unit) or by using a combination of the guideline public company method under the market approach and the discounted cash flow analysis method under the income approach to determine the fair value. Any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over its fair value is recognized as an impairment loss, and the carrying value of goodwill is written down. The Company's goodwill was generated through the business acquisitions during the year ended December 31, 2021. Based on our evaluation of market conditions and other qualitative and quantitative factors of the Company as of September 30, 2022, including the Company’s market capitalization, we performed our quantitative impairment test and concluded that the fair value of the Company’s single reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. However, during the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company experienced a sustained decline in the share price from $4.98 as of September 30, 2022, to $1.23 as of December 31,2022 which resulted in a decline of market capitalization from over $400 million to approximately $100 million, which indicated it was more likely than not than an impairment may exist. As of December 31, 2022, the Company performed an interim goodwill impairment test and determined that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, and recognized a full impairment charge of $25.6 million and presented as goodwill impairment on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2022. No goodwill impairment was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. (See Note 10 Intangible assets, net and goodwill.) Long-Lived and Intangible Assets. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets and long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment at the asset group level whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets within an asset group to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If an asset group is considered to be impaired, an impairment is recognized to the extent that carrying value of the asset group exceeds its fair value. This analysis differs from the Company’s goodwill analysis in that the impairment for asset group is only deemed to have occurred if the sum of the forecasted undiscounted future cash flows of the asset group is less than its carrying value. The estimate of long-term undiscounted cash flows includes long-term forecasts of revenue growth, gross margins, and operating expenses, and requires significant judgment and assumptions. An impairment loss may exist when the estimated undiscounted cash flows attributable to the estimated undiscounted cash flows attributable to the asset group are less than the carrying amount of the asset group. No impairment of long-lived and intangible assets was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or transferred for a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivables, accounts payable and certain notes payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity and/or variable rates associated with these instruments. Long-term debt as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 approximates its fair value as the interest rates are indexed to market rates (Level 2 inputs). The Company categorizes the inputs to the fair value measurements into three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are: Level 1 - Inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company is able to access at the measurement date. Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, and can reference interest rates, yield curves, implied volatilities and credit spreads. Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Leases. Following the adoption of ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), effective January 2021, the Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception based on whether there is an identified asset and whether the Company controls the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use. The Company classifies leases as either financing or operating. Right of use (“ROU”) assets are recognized at the lease commencement date and represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments over the remaining lease term. Present value of lease payments are discounted based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, when the interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. Significant assumptions and judgments were made in the application of GAAP for leases, including those related to the lease discount rate. The interest rate used to determine the present value of the future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, when the interest rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated by developing its own synthetic credit rating, corresponding yield curve, and the terms of each lease at the adoption date. The Company involved valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in (a.) evaluating the appropriateness of the methodology used to estimate the synthetic credit rating, (b.) developing an estimate of the synthetic credit rating used by the Company in developing incremental borrowing rates, and (c.) obtaining market yield curves associated with the estimated synthetic credit rating used to derive incremental borrowing rates associated with different lease terms. The Company’s operating lease ROU assets are measured based on the corresponding operating lease liability adjusted for (i) payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date, (ii) initial direct costs incurred and (iii) lease incentives under the lease. Options to renew or terminate the lease are recognized as part of our ROU assets and lease liabilities when it is reasonably certain the options will be exercised. ROU assets are also assessed for impairments consistent with the Company’s long-lived asset policy. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. Accumulated other comprehensive loss is defined as the change in equity resulting from transactions from non-owner sources. Other comprehensive (loss) income, net of tax, consisted of gains and losses associated with changes in foreign currency as a result of the translation of the financial statements of the Company’s Italian subsidiary. Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The Company’s principal business is the manufacturing of plant-based foods primarily in the United States and Italy. Revenue recognition is determined by (a) identifying the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (b) identifying the performance obligation in each contract; (c) determining the transaction price; and (d) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligation in each contract; and (e) recognizing revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services. Each shipped or delivered customer order is determined as a separate performance obligation. When control of the promised products and services are transferred to the Company’s customers, normally at the point when the promised products are delivered to customers or picked up by customers, the Company recognizes revenue in the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for these products and services. Control generally transfers to the customer when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer based upon applicable shipping terms. Payment terms with customers typically require payment 7 to 45 days from invoice date. Payment terms may vary by customer but generally do not exceed 45 days from invoice date. The Company disaggregates revenue based on the type of products sold to its customers – private label, Tattooed Chef and other. Other revenues primarily consist of burritos, enchiladas and quesadillas and other products sold by NMFD, acquired by the Company on May 2021 (see Note 9 Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions ), to its restaurant customers on an as-needed basis, as well as co-manufacturing contracts. Some contracts also include some form of variable consideration. The most common forms of variable consideration include slotting fees, trade discounts, promotional programs, and demonstration costs. Variable consideration is treated as a reduction in revenue when product revenue is recognized. Depending on the specific type of variable consideration, the Company uses either the expected value or most likely amount method to determine the variable consideration. The Company reviews and updates its estimates and related accruals of variable consideration each period based on the terms of the agreements, historical experience, and any recent changes in the market. The Company generally does not have unbilled receivable balances arising from transactions with customers. The Company does not capitalize contract inception costs, as contracts are one year or less and the Company does not incur significant costs to fulfill a contract that would be requiring capitalization. The Company recognizes shipping and handling costs related to products transferred to the end customer as fulfillment cost and includes these costs in cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold consists of the costs of raw materials utilized in the manufacture process, co-packing or repacking fees, in-bound freight charges, internal transfer costs, cold storage expenses incurred prior to the manufacture of the Company’s finished products, and out-bound freight to transfer the finished goods to the end customers. In addition, the Company includes in cost of goods sold certain costs such as depreciation, amortization and payroll costs that relate to the direct manufacture by the Company. Operating Expenses. Operating expenses include selling expenses, cold storage expenses after manufacturing is complete, as well as expenses for advertising, sampling costs, costs for merchandise displays, other marketing expenses, and design expenses. Operating expenses also include such costs as payroll costs, travel costs, professional service fees (including legal fees), depreciation and amortization expenses unrelated to the production process, and other general and administrative costs. Sales and Marketing Expenses. The Company expenses costs associated with sales and marketing as incurred. Sales and marketing expenses were $40.0 million, $23.1 million and $6.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and are included in operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Interest Expense. Interest expense includes interest primarily related to the Company’s notes payable and line of credit. Stock-based Compensation. The Company measures compensation expense for stock options and other stock awards in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation . Stock-based compensation is measured at fair value on grant date and recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period. The Company accounts for forfeitures when they occur. Generally, the Company issues stock options and other stock awards to employees with service-based and/or performance-based vesting conditions. For awards with only service-based vesting conditions, the Company records compensation cost for these awards using the straight-line method. For awards with performance-based vesting conditions, the Company recognizes compensation cost on a tranche-by-tranche basis (the accelerated attribution method) over the expected service period. The Company measures stock-based awards granted to non-employees based on the fair value of the award on the grant date. Compensation expense is recognized over the period during which services are rendered by non-employees until service is completed. Income Taxes. As part of the process of preparing its consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to estimate its provision for income taxes in each of the tax jurisdictions in which it conducts business, in accordance with the ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740” |
