Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in the US federal jurisdiction and various state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. When tax returns are filed, some positions taken are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position
taken or the amount that would ultimately be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements in the period during which the Company believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon settlement. The portion of the benefits that exceeds the amounts measured is recorded as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the tax authorities upon settlement.

The Company has on-going income tax examinations in various state and foreign tax jurisdictions and has recorded an additional tax accrual for unrecognized tax benefits of $127 during the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to no additional tax accrual during the three months ended June 30, 2016 in income tax payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2017 is $11,252, of which $6,555 is recorded in the non-current income tax liability and $4,697 in current income tax payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The tax accrual relates to tax positions taken in years that are open to examination. It is reasonably possible that $3,053 of net unrecognized tax benefits will be settled within the next 12 months. The Company has recorded a decrease to unrecognized tax benefits of $603 related to settlements with state tax authorities during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to no change to unrecognized tax benefits during the three months ended June 30, 2016. Additional interest and penalties were incurred of $194 during the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $196 during the three months ended June 30, 2016, resulting from tax positions that are subject to examination, and were recorded in interest expense in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. As of June 30, 2017, accrued interest and potential penalties was $3,050, of which $1,324 was recorded in non-current income tax liability and $1,726 in current income tax payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
