Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes On December 22, 2017, new federal tax reform, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”), was enacted in the United States, resulting in significant changes from previous tax law. The new legislation reduced the federal corporate income tax rate to 21% from 35% effective January 1, 2018. In the fourth quarter of 2017, we recorded a net benefit of $10.0 million on the date of enactment of the new legislation. The provisional amount related to the re-measurement of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future was $16.0 million of benefit. The provisional amount related to the one-time transition tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings was $7.0 million based on cumulative foreign earnings of $101 million. We also recorded a $1 million benefit related to the treatment of current year cash dividends in relation to the repatriation tax. The adjustments to the deferred tax assets and liabilities, and the liability related to the transition tax are provisional amounts based on information available as of June 30, 2018. These amounts are subject to change as we obtain information necessary to complete the calculations. We continue to evaluate the provisional estimates, but as of June 30, 2018, we have not modified our original estimates made as of December 31, 2017. We will update the provisional amounts as we refine our estimates of cumulative temporary differences and our interpretations of the application of the new legislation. We expect to complete our analysis of the provisional items during the second half of 2018. On December 22, 2017, Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) was issued to address the application of U.S. GAAP in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Act. In accordance with SAB 118, we have determined that the $16.0 million of deferred tax benefit recorded in connection with the re-measurement of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities, the $7.0 million of current tax expense recorded in connection with the transition tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings and the $1 million benefit related to the treatment of current year cash dividends in relation to the repatriation tax are provisional amounts and reasonable estimates at December 31, 2017. The impact of the Act may differ from this estimate, possibly materially, due to, among other things, changes in interpretations we have made, guidance that may be issued and actions we may take as a result of the Act. Additional work is necessary for a more detailed analysis of our deferred tax assets and liabilities and our historical foreign earnings as well as potential correlative adjustments. The Act subjects a U.S. shareholder to tax on Global Intangible Low Tax Income (“GILTI”) earned by certain foreign subsidiaries. The FASB Staff Q&A, Topic 740, No. 5, Accounting for GILTI, states that an entity can make an accounting policy election to either recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or to provide for the tax expense related to GILTI in the year the tax is incurred as a period expense only. Given the complexity of the GILTI provisions, the Company is still evaluating the effects of the GILTI provisions and has not yet determined its accounting policy. As of June 30, 2018, the Company has included estimated GILTI effects in our calculation of tax expense for the quarter. The Company has not provided deferred taxes related to GILTI as of June 30, 2018. At December 31, 2017, prior to the calculation of the transition tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation, U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes had not been provided on $151 million of current and prior year undistributed earnings of subsidiaries operating outside the U.S. These earnings, which are considered to be invested indefinitely, would become subject to income tax if they were remitted as dividends, were lent to one of our U.S. entities or if we were to sell our stock in the subsidiaries. While the provisional transition tax of approximately $7.0 million resulted in the reduction of the excess amount of financial reporting over the tax basis in our foreign subsidiaries, we have not completed our analysis of the Act’s impact as an actual repatriation from our non-U.S. subsidiaries could still be subject to additional foreign withholding taxes and U.S. state taxes. We have not completed our analysis of our global working capital and cash requirements and the potential tax liabilities attributable to a repatriation. Therefore, we have not made a provisional estimate of the deferred taxes attributable to repatriation. We will record the tax effects of any change in our prior assertion with respect to these investments, and disclose any unrecognized deferred tax liability for temporary differences related to our foreign investments, if practicable, in the period that we are first able to make a reasonable estimate, no later than December 2018. The income tax benefit was $0.2 million compared to a benefit of $8.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and the corresponding effective tax rates were (18.2)% and 41.2%, respectively. The income tax benefit was $3.7 million compared to a benefit of $17.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and the corresponding effective tax rates were 27.0% and 40.5%, respectively. The changes in the tax rate are primarily due to the effects of the Act.
