Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes We file a consolidated federal income tax return, consolidated unitary tax returns in certain states and other separate state income tax returns for our subsidiary companies. The income tax provision for interim periods is determined based upon the expected effective income tax rate for the full year and the tax rate applicable to certain discrete transactions in the interim period. To determine the annual effective income tax rate, we must estimate both the total income (loss) before income tax for the full year and the jurisdictions in which that income (loss) is subject to tax. The actual effective income tax rate for the full year may differ from these estimates if income (loss) before income tax is greater than or less than what was estimated or if the allocation of income (loss) to jurisdictions in which it is taxed is different from the estimated allocations. We review and adjust our estimated effective income tax rate for the full year each quarter based upon our most recent estimates of income (loss) before income tax for the full year and the jurisdictions in which we expect that income will be taxed. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 2.4% and 29%, respectively. The comparability of our year-over-year effective tax rate is affected by the write-off of Scripps Networks goodwill in 2023, the majority of which is non-deductible. Differences between our effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate are the impact of state taxes, foreign taxes, non-deductible expenses, changes in reserves for uncertain tax positions, excess tax benefits or expense from the exercise and vesting of share-based compensation awards ($1.4 million expense in 2023 and $1.0 million benefit in 2022), state deferred rate changes ($1.1 million benefit in 2023 and $4.0 million expense in 2022) and state NOL valuation allowance changes. Additionally, the 2023 year-to-date income tax provision was impacted by a net discrete tax provision benefit of $16.9 million related to book impairment of tax deductible goodwill recognized in the second quarter of 2023. We recognize state NOL carryforwards as deferred tax assets, subject to valuation allowances. At each balance sheet date, we estimate the amount of carryforwards that are not expected to be used prior to expiration of the carryforward period. The tax effect of the carryforwards that are not expected to be used prior to their expiration is included in the valuation allowance.
