Note 14. Income Taxes

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded benefit from income tax of $136,000 and provision for income tax of $665,000, respectively. The benefit from and the provision for income tax for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 were determined using our effective tax rate on our year-to-date income (loss). We estimated a state tax liability over our pre-tax income (loss) for 2021, which is primarily due to revenue recognized for the Lilly Agreement. We do not expect to owe federal income taxes due to the sufficient net operating loss carryforwards that were generated prior to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, as well as significant research and development credit carryforwards. We continue to record a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets considering our cumulative losses in prior years and forecasted losses in the future. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we did not record provision for income taxes due to our pre-tax book loss.
