Income Taxes

NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was 36.6%, which represented a blend of federal, state and foreign taxes and the impact of certain nondeductible items. The effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was 0.5% due primarily to the existing income tax valuation allowance against deferred income tax assets, primarily net operating losses. During 2015, after considering all positive and negative evidence, the Company concluded that its deferred income taxes would be more likely than not to be realized. The Company released substantially all of its valuation allowance in 2015.
