13) Income Taxes

 

The Company’s overall effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was 24.0% and 9.0%, respectively, which resulted in a provision for income taxes of $1,142,000 and $198,000, respectively. The Company’s overall effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was 23.6% and 19.5%, respectively, which resulted in a provision for income taxes of $2,788,000 and $5,383,000, respectively. The Company's effective tax rates differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% partially due to its provision for state income taxes.  The effective tax rate in the current period increased when compared to the prior year period largely due to the Company’s provision for state income taxes and larger discrete provision-to-return adjustments in the prior year mainly due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reduction of the federal statutory rate from 35% to 21%.
