Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | . INCOME TAXES Our effective income tax rate was 18.7% and 22.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The realization of deferred tax assets are dependent upon the generation of sufficient taxable income of the appropriate character in future periods. We regularly assess our ability to realize our deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of our deferred tax assets will not be realized. In assessing the realizability of our deferred tax assets, we weigh all available positive and negative evidence. Due to the weight of objectively verifiable negative evidence, we believe that it is more likely than not that certain of our state and foreign deferred tax assets will not be realized as of March 31, 2023, and have maintained a valuation allowance on such deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance against our federal, state and foreign deferred tax assets increased by $10 million for the period ended March 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022. Our income tax returns are audited by U.S. federal, state and foreign tax authorities. We are currently under examination by many of these tax authorities. The tax years open to examination include the years 2012 and forward for the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions including France, Germany, India and Switzerland. There are differing interpretations of tax laws and regulations, and as a result, significant disputes may arise with these tax authorities involving issues of the timing and amount of deductions and allocations of income among various tax jurisdictions. We evaluate our exposures associated with our tax filing positions on a quarterly basis. We record liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions. We do not believe any currently pending uncertain tax positions will have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements, although an adverse resolution of one or more of these uncertain tax positions in any period may have a material impact on the results of operations for that period. Our gross unrecognized tax benefits were $87.2 million and $85.5 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The increase in our gross unrecognized tax benefits is primarily attributable to increases of uncertain tax accruals in various jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2023, based on the expected outcome of certain examinations or as a result of the expiration of statutes of limitation for certain jurisdictions, we believe that within the next twelve months it is reasonably possible that our previously unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by up to $17.6 million. Substantially all such amounts will impact our effective income tax rate if recognized.
