Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]
Our income tax expense was $21,151 and $30,146 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024, respectively, as compared to $16,795 and $24,917 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, respectively. Income tax expense increased versus the prior comparative periods due to an increased full-year forecasted effective tax rate. Excluding the effect of discrete tax adjustments, our estimated annual effective tax rate is higher for fiscal year 2025 than for fiscal year 2024 primarily due to increased Swiss tax as in the prior comparative periods we had a full valuation allowance in Switzerland, which was partially released in the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Our effective tax rate continues to be negatively impacted by losses in certain jurisdictions where we are unable to recognize a tax benefit in the current period. These losses with no tax benefit were excluded in calculating income tax expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, in
accordance with GAAP. We continuously analyze our valuation allowance positions and the weight of objective and verifiable evidence of actual results against the more subjective evidence of anticipated future income.

As of December 31, 2024 we had unrecognized tax benefits of $16,858, including accrued interest and penalties of $2,356. We recognize interest and, if applicable, penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. If recognized, $6,809 of unrecognized tax benefits would reduce our tax expense. It is reasonably possible that a reduction in unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next twelve months in the range of $6,400 to $6,900 related to the lapse of applicable statutes of limitations or settlement. We believe we have appropriately provided for all tax uncertainties.
    
We conduct business in a number of tax jurisdictions and, as such, are required to file income tax returns in multiple jurisdictions globally. The years 2014 through 2024 remain open for examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and the years 2015 through 2024 remain open for examination in the various states and non-U.S. tax jurisdictions in which we file tax returns. We believe that our income tax reserves are adequately maintained taking into consideration both the technical merits of our tax return positions and ongoing developments in our income tax audits. However, the final determination of our tax return positions, if audited, is uncertain, and there is a possibility that final resolution of these matters could have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows.
