12. Income Taxes

 

The effective income tax rates for the nine and three months ended September 30 were 21.7% and 18.4% for 2022 and 22.0% and 24.4% for 2021, respectively.

 

The difference between the Company’s effective tax rate for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2022, and the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily relates to state income taxes (net of federal income tax benefit), the benefit for decreases in uncertain tax positions and tax expense related to the tax audit settlement.

 

In the third quarter of 2022, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) completed its examination of the Company’s tax filings for 2017 and 2018. As a result of closing the IRS examination, the Company realized a net tax benefit related to the release of uncertain tax positions reduced by tax expenses to adjust accrued current and deferred income tax liabilities. As a result of the IRS audit, the Company is now recognizing deferred tax liability for full inclusion entities where the Company cannot assert permanent reinvestment.
