8. INCOME TAX PROVISION

The Company files federal, state, and foreign income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. The Company’s provision for income taxes for continuing operations in interim periods is computed by applying its estimated annual effective rate against its loss before income tax expense for the period. In addition, non-recurring or discrete items are recorded during the period in which they occur. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was (0.25%) and (0.20%). The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was (0.23%) and (0.12%).  

The Company has not accrued any interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits as a result of offsetting net operating losses. However, if the situation occurs, the Company will recognize interest and penalties within the income tax expense line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss and within the related tax liability line in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Federal, state and local tax returns of the Company are routinely subject to review by various taxing authorities.
