Note 11: Income Taxes
For interim periods, we estimate our annual effective tax rate, exclusive of discrete items, which is derived primarily by our estimate of our valuation allowance as of the end of our fiscal year. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate due to the recording of valuation allowances. We recorded an income tax benefit of $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 resulting in an effective tax rate of (12.0)% compared to an income tax expense of $0.9 million for the comparable prior year period, at an effective tax rate of 5.9%. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to same period in 2023, was primarily due to a pretax loss in the current period.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) has issued “Pillar Two” model rules introducing a new global minimum tax of 15% intended to be effective on January 1, 2024. While the US has not yet adopted the Pillar Two rules, various other governments around the world are enacting legislation to do so. As currently designed, Pillar Two will ultimately apply to our worldwide operations. Considering we do not have material operations in jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the Pillar Two minimum, these rules are not expected to materially increase our global tax costs. We will continue to monitor US and global legislative activities related to Pillar Two for potential impacts.
