Income Taxes

A provision for income taxes has been recorded at an effective tax rate of 32.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the 33.0% effective tax rate recorded in the same period a year ago due to a write-off of deferred tax assets in the quarter ended March 31, 2014 as a result of New York State corporate tax legislation changes, offset by favorable results and taxing authority settlements in connection with the prior year tax return finalization process recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 2014.
