Basis of presentation [Abstract] |
Basis of presentation | Basis of Presentation The (unaudited) interim Consolidated Financial Statements are, in the opinion of management, a fair statement of the results for the periods reported and include all necessary adjustments, all of a normal recurring nature, for a fair statement of such results. The consolidated statement of financial condition presented as of December 31, 2023 was derived from audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2023. Certain information and notes to the financial statements disclosures which would normally be included in financial statements prepared in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP), have been condensed or omitted from the unaudited financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the 2023 Form 10-K. Operating results for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year or any future period.
Income taxes | Tax impact on Intercompany Distributions The net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, included $ 22.9 million of expenses, of which $ 16.5 million is reflected in income tax expense and $ 6.4 million is reflected in other operating expenses, related to an out-of-period adjustment associated with the Corporation’s U.S. subsidiary’s non-payment of taxes on certain intercompany distributions to the Bank Holding Company (BHC) in Puerto Rico, a foreign corporation for U.S. tax purposes. The adjustment corrected errors for income tax expense that should have been recognized of $ 5.5 million and $ 5.4 million in the years 2023 and 2022, respectively, and an aggregate of $ 5.6 million, in the years prior to 2022. The $ 6.4 million recognized as other operating expense corresponded to interest due up to March 31, 2024 on the related late payment of the withholding tax, of which approximately $ 3.0 million correspond to years prior to 2022. As a result of this adjustment, the deferred tax asset related to NOL of the BHC and its related valuation allowance was reduced by $ 53.7 million. The Corporation evaluated the impact of the out-of-period adjustment and concluded it was not material to any previously issued interim or annual consolidated financial statements and the adjustment is not expected to be material to the year ending December 31, 2024.
Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements | Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
