INCOME TAXES [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” ASC 740-10 clarifies whether or not to recognize assets or liabilities for tax positions taken that may be challenged by a tax authority. All of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized in future periods, would impact the Company’s effective tax rate. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. and in various states and foreign countries. As of June 30, 2017, in the major jurisdictions where the Company operates, it is generally no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2012. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $4,421 and $6,637, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits, which are included in other long-term obligations on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 the decrease in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits was related to certain statute of limitations expiring, and the filing of certain voluntary disclosures. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the increase in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits was primarily related to the acquisition of Performance Chemicals & Ingredients Company (d/b/a SensoryEffects). The Company includes interest expense or income as well as potential penalties on unrecognized tax positions as a component of income tax expense in the consolidated statements of earnings. The total amount of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was approximately $1,705 and $2,486, respectively, and is included in other long-term obligations. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 26.7% and 33.8%, respectively and 25.9% and 33.9%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 is lower primarily due to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation being recognized as a reduction to the provision for income taxes, resulting from the adoption of ASU 2016-09, a purchase price reduction related to the SensoryEffects acquisition, along with reduced taxes and reduced tax rates in certain jurisdictions.
