4. INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense or benefit is recognized based on the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate which is based upon the tax rate expected for the full calendar year applied to the pretax income or loss of the interim period. The Company’s consolidated effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was 26.3% and 29.0%, respectively, and differs from the effective statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes, a valuation allowance adjustment on state net operating loss carryforwards, and other permanent items. Due to the uncertainty of realizing the benefit from the deferred tax asset recorded for certain state net operating loss carryforwards, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance of approximately $6.7 million and $5.2 million, net of federal tax benefit, on the deferred tax assets related to those state net operating losses as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

The Company has determined that there are no positions currently taken that would rise to a level requiring an amount to be recorded or disclosed as an unrecognized tax benefit. If such positions do arise, it is the Company’s intent that any interest or penalty amount related to such positions will be recorded as a component of the income tax provision (benefit) in the applicable period.
