Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income taxes | 15. Income taxes Income tax provisions for interim periods are based on an estimated annual income tax rate, adjusted for discrete tax items. As a result, the Company’s interim effective tax rates may vary significantly from the statutory tax rate and the annual effective tax rate. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the effective tax rate on continuing operations was 117.6% and 50.7%, respectively. The primary factors affecting the Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019, were increased limits on executive compensation, financial expenses not deductible for tax purposes, and benefits related to effective settlement of the 2015 federal tax examination and statute expirations. During the first quarter of 2019, the Internal Revenue Service concluded an examination of the Company’s federal income tax return for 2015, which resulted in a benefit of $1.8 million. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that, in the next 12 months, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits related to the resolution of federal, state and foreign matters could be reduced by $13.0 million to $13.4 million as audits close and statutes expire.
