12. Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $3,373,000, or an effective tax rate of 28.5%, and $1,502,000, or an effective tax rate of 63.5%, for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company recorded income tax expense of $8,448,000, or an effective tax rate of 29.0%, and $1,752,000, or an effective tax rate of 66.0%, for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020, were primarily impacted by foreign income taxed at rates that are different from the federal statutory rate and non-deductible executive compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m).

The Company continues to record a valuation allowance against its foreign deferred tax assets as a result of its non-U.S. net operating loss carry-forwards and non-U.S. research and development credits in connection with its acquisitions due to the uncertainty of their utilization in future periods. Should the actual amount differ from the Company’s estimates, the amount of the valuation allowance could be impacted. Realization of deferred tax assets from its U.S. operations is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate sufficient future taxable income. Significant judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s net deferred tax assets. The Company makes these estimates and judgments about its future taxable income that are based on assumptions that are consistent with the Company’s future plans. A valuation allowance is established when the Company believes it is not more likely than not all or some of a deferred tax assets will be realized. In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction in which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence.

At December 31, 2020, the Company is not under examination in any jurisdiction and the years ended March 31, 2016 through 2020 remain subject to examination. The Company believes no significant changes in the unrecognized tax benefits will occur within the next 12 months.
