Income Taxes

 

The Company files income tax returns in the United States Federal jurisdiction, in a limited number of foreign jurisdictions, and in many state jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to United States Federal, state, or foreign income tax examinations for years before 2016.

 

The Company recorded income tax expense at an estimated effective income tax rate of 21.7% and 45.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company’s estimated effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was impacted by the tax windfalls recognized upon the vesting of equity awards. The Company’s estimated effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was impacted primarily by costs associated with the acquisition of Geneva that are expected to be non-deductible for tax purposes.
