Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXES
Our operations are conducted through various subsidiaries in a number of countries throughout the world. We have provided for income taxes based upon the tax laws and rates in the countries in which operations are conducted and income is earned.
We operate in three jurisdictions, Australia, Canada and the U.S., where statutory tax rates range from 15% to 30%. Our effective tax rate will vary from period to period based on changes in earnings mix between these different jurisdictions. On January 1, 2024, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Pillar Two rules became effective and established a minimum 15% tax rate on certain multinational enterprises. The Pillar Two rules have been implemented in Australia and Canada, with the U.S. still uncertain to date. The applicable tax law changes with respect to Pillar Two have been considered for the jurisdictions in which we operate, and we do not anticipate the Pillar Two rules to have a materially adverse impact on our financial results.

We compute our quarterly taxes under the effective tax rate method by applying an anticipated annual effective rate to our year-to-date income, except for significant unusual or extraordinary transactions. Income taxes for any significant and unusual or extraordinary transactions are computed and recorded in the period in which the specific transaction occurs. As of March 31, 2025 and 2024, Canada and the U.S. were considered loss jurisdictions for tax accounting purposes and were removed from the annual effective tax rate computation for purposes of computing the interim tax provision.
Our income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 totaled $3.1 million, or (45.7)% of pretax loss, compared to income tax expense of $1.6 million, or (42.6)% of pretax loss, for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was impacted by Canada and the U.S. being considered loss jurisdictions that were removed from the annual effective tax rate computation for purposes of computing the interim tax provision.
