Income Taxes

NOTE 12 - INCOME TAXES

The estimated annual effective tax rate is forecasted quarterly using actual historical information and forward-looking estimates and applied to year-to-date ordinary income. The tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances, settlements with taxing authorities and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are reported in the interim period in which they occur.

The income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $5.4 million and $8.9 million, respectively, on pre-tax income of $16.2 million and $29.8 million, resulting in effective income tax rates of 33.3 percent and 29.9 percent, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 differs from the statutory rate primarily due to valuation allowances, the reversal of an uncertain tax position and the mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions.

The income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was $0.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively, on pre-tax income of $2.6 million and $16.5 million, resulting in effective income tax rates of 35.2 percent and 10.4 percent, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to U.S. valuation allowances and the mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions, partially offset by a favorable adjustment to a tax credit. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 differs from the statutory rate primarily due to a favorable adjustment to a tax credit and the reversal of an uncertain tax position, partially offset by the mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions and U.S. valuation allowances.
