Generally accepted accounting principles provide accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken by Discovery in its federal and state exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. Discovery returns are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities, generally for three and four years, respectively, after they are filed. 1 Regents of the University of California - Irvine 5171 California Avenue Suite 150 Irvine CA 92697 952226406 150000 Basic Opthal.
