Income Taxes [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Note 10. Income Taxes Income tax provisions for the Company's interim periods are based on the effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year. The Company's effective tax rate for the six months ended March 31, 2015 was 28.4%, compared to 35.9% for the first half of fiscal 2014. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 2015 primarily reflected the benefit of the utilization of certain tax attributes as a result of legal structure reorganization in foreign jurisdictions. The difference between the Company's effective tax rate and the Federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily reflected the impact of state taxes, offset by lower foreign income taxes. The Company had unrecognized tax benefits (excluding penalties and interest) of $4,318 and $4,311 on March 31, 2015 and September 30, 2014, respectively, all of which, if recorded, would impact the 2015 annual effective tax rate. The Company classifies interest and penalties on tax uncertainties as a component of the provision for income taxes. The Company included $88 in interest and penalties in the provision for income taxes for the first six months of fiscal 2015. Total penalties and interest accrued were $2,046 and $2,135 at March 31, 2015 and September 30, 2014, respectively. These accruals may potentially be applicable in the event of an unfavorable outcome of uncertain tax positions. The Company is currently under examination in several tax jurisdictions and remains subject to examination until the statute of limitations expires for those tax jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2015, the tax years that remain subject to examination by major jurisdiction generally are:
