Income Taxes | Note 14—Income Taxes The provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 were both at an effective rate of 26.5%. The provision for income taxes for the second quarter and the first six months of 2013 was at an effective rate of 26.8% and 24.0%, respectively. The effective rate in the first six months of 2013 included a first quarter benefit of $11,300 resulting from the delay, by the U.S. government, in the reinstatement of certain federal income tax provisions for the year 2012 relating primarily to research and development credits and certain U.S. taxes on foreign income that were part of the tax provisions within the American Taxpayer Relief Act. Such tax provisions were reinstated on January 2, 2013 with retroactive effect to 2012. Excluding the effect of this benefit, the effective tax rate for the first six months of 2013 was 26.8%. The Company is present in the U.S. and numerous foreign taxable jurisdictions, and at any point in time has numerous audits underway at various stages of completion. With few exceptions, the Company is subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for the years 2010 and after. The Company is generally not able to precisely estimate the ultimate settlement amounts or timing until the close of an audit. The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by local authorities and may not be fully sustained, despite the Company’s belief that the underlying tax positions are fully supportable. As of June 30, 2014, the amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, which if recognized would impact the effective tax rate, was approximately $16,232, the majority of which is included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted for changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits and closing of statutes of limitations. Based on information currently available, management anticipates that over the next twelve month period, audit activity could be completed and statutes of limitations may close relating to existing unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $2,482.
