INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. There is a potential for volatility of the effective tax rate due to several factors, including discrete items, changes in the mix and amount of pre-tax income and the jurisdictions to which it relates, changes in tax laws and foreign tax holidays, business reorganizations, settlements with taxing authorities and foreign currency fluctuations. In addition, the Company continues to explore tax planning opportunities that may have a material impact on its effective tax rate.
The Company’s effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2022 was 14.7% on $24.4 million of income before taxes compared to 4.4% on $30.8 million of income before taxes for the same period in 2021. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended July 1, 2022 was 16.1% on $38.4 million of income before taxes compared to 8.6% on $55.8 million of income before taxes for the same period of 2021. The difference between the Company’s effective tax rates and the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21% for the second quarter and first six months of 2022 and 2021 is due principally to the net impact of the Company’s earnings outside the U.S., which are generally taxed at rates that differ from the U.S federal rate, the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) tax, the Foreign Derived Intangible Income (“FDII”) deduction, the availability of tax credits, and the recognition of certain discrete tax items.
The Company did not record discrete tax expense for the second quarter of 2022 and recorded discrete tax expense of $0.5 million for the first six months of 2022, compared to discrete tax benefits of $3.8 million and $4.4 million, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2021. The discrete tax expense for the first six months of 2022 is predominately related to excess tax benefits recognized upon vesting of RSUs during those periods and/or tax shortfalls recorded for the forfeiture of certain PRSUs. Approximately $3.5 million of the discrete tax benefits recognized for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 relate to the reversal of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the effective settlement of tax audits during the second quarter of 2021. The remainder of the discrete tax benefits relate predominately to excess tax benefits recognized upon vesting of RSUs or exercise of stock options during those quarters.
Unrecognized tax benefits reflect the difference between positions taken or expected to be taken on income tax returns and the amounts reflected in the financial statements. As of July 1, 2022, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $6.0 million, predominately all of which would favorably impact the effective tax rate, net of federal benefit on state issues, if recognized. As of July 1, 2022, the Company believes the reasonably possible total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that could increase or decrease in the next 12 months as a result of various statute expirations, audit closures, and/or tax settlements would not be material to its consolidated financial statements.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many governments have enacted or are contemplating measures to provide aid and economic stimulus. These measures may include deferring the due dates of tax payments or other changes to their income and non-income-based tax laws. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the U.S., includes measures to assist companies, including temporary changes to income and non-income-based tax laws. The CARES Act provided for deferred payment of the employer portion of social security taxes through the end of 2020. As of July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a remaining deferred amount of $4.8 million, which the Company will pay prior to December 31, 2022. The deferred payroll taxes are included within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
