Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recognized income tax expense of $13.0 representing an effective tax rate of 27.5% compared to income tax expense of $15.0, and an effective tax rate of 43.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The tax rate for 2014 is lower than the prior year due to the absence of a valuation allowance that was recorded in 2013 against U.S. deferred tax assets as well as an increase in income during 2014 that is eligible for the tax holiday in Korea. The Company's tax expense for three months ended March 31, 2014 reflects the impact of changes in the New York State income tax law enacted on March 31, 2014. The Company is eligible for a tax rate of 0% as a qualified New York manufacturer. The application of the newly enacted tax rate to existing net deferred tax assets resulted in an increase in tax expense of $1.9 million. The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions and is subject to examination by tax authorities in these jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in several jurisdictions including Germany, Italy, Korea, the United Kingdom and the U.S. The settlement of an examination could result in changes in amounts attributable to us through the Tax Matters Agreement entered into with Exelis, Inc. and Xylem, Inc. Over the next twelve months, the net amount of the tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits in foreign and domestic jurisdictions could change by approximately $87.0 million due to changes in audit status, expiration of statutes of limitations and other events.
