. Income Taxes
 
The effective tax rate for the
three
months ended
September 30, 2019
was
21.3%.
The rates differ slightly from the fiscal
2019
U.S. federal statutory rate of
21%
primarily due to state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the
three
months ended
September 30, 2018
was
20.6%.
 
To determine our quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions to which we are subject. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rate from quarter to quarter. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as an income tax expense. There were
no
significant discrete items for the
three
ended
September 30, 2019
and
three
months ended
September 30, 2018.  
 
We record valuation allowances to reduce our deferred tax assets to an amount we believe is more likely than
not
to be realized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than
not
that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. During the
three
months ended
September 30, 2019,
there was
no
change to our valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets.
 
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates, for each of the jurisdictions in which we operate, expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date for such new rates.
 
We are subject to taxation in the U.S., Switzerland and various state jurisdictions. Our tax years for the fiscal year ended
June 30,
2016
and forward are subject to examination by the U.S. tax authorities. Our tax years for the fiscal years ended
June 30,
2007
and forward are subject to examination by the state tax authorities. Our tax years for the fiscal year ended
June 30,
2018
and forward are subject to examination by the Swiss tax authorities.
 
It is our policy to establish reserves based on management’s assessment of exposure for certain positions taken in previously filed tax returns that
may
become payable upon audit by tax authorities. Our tax reserves are analyzed quarterly and adjustments are made as events occur that we believe warrant adjustments to those reserves. There were
no
adjustments to reserves in the
three
month periods ended
September 30, 2019.
