13. INCOME TAXES

The Company's provision for income taxes in interim periods is computed by applying forecasted annual effective tax rates to income or loss before income taxes for the interim period. In addition, non-recurring or discrete items, including interest on prior year tax liabilities, are recorded during the period in which they occur. To the extent that actual income or loss before taxes for the full year differs from the forecast estimates applied at the end of the most recent interim period, the actual tax rate recognized for the year ending December 31, 2013 could be materially different from the forecasted rate used for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

We recognized a benefit for income taxes of $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, an effective tax rate of 38.2%. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2013 exceeded U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% by the net of discrete benefits partially offset by state taxes and non-deductible permanent differences. During the first quarter of 2012, we recognized a provision for income taxes of $0.9 million, an effective tax rate of 39.1%. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2013 and 2012 exceeded the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to state taxes, discrete items, and non-deductible permanent differences.
