INCOME TAXES | 10. INCOME TAXES ​ The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was 1.5% and 27.5%, respectively. ​ On March 27, 2020, the U.S. federal government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act, among other things, allows NOLs incurred in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate a refund of previously paid income taxes. ​ The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily impacted by the following items: (i) the remeasurement of a forecasted domestic loss at a higher tax rate due to carryback provisions as provided by the CARES Act, (ii) the mix of income generated among the jurisdictions in which the Company operates along with the exclusion of losses in India where the Company cannot benefit from those losses as required by ASC 740-270-30-36(a) and, (iii) discrete items including a $0.4 million expense for interest on unrecognized tax positions, a $0.2 million expense to record a valuation allowance against an investment write-off which cannot be currently benefitted for tax, and a $0.6 million benefit (net) related to the utilization of losses at a higher tax rate as allowed by the CARES Act. ​ The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily impacted by the mix of income generated among the jurisdictions in which the Company operates along with the exclusion of losses in the US Virgin Islands and India where the Company cannot benefit from those losses as required by ASC 740-270-30-36(a), in addition to the following discrete items: (i) a $1.3 million deferred tax benefit related to an investment tax credit, and (ii) a $0.5 million net interest expense on unrecognized tax positions. ​ The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was (6.7%) and 26.7%, respectively. ​ The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily impacted by the following items: (i) the remeasurement of a forecasted domestic loss at a higher tax rate due to carryback provisions as provided by the CARES Act, (ii) the mix of income generated among the jurisdictions in which the Company operates along with the exclusion of losses in India where the Company cannot benefit from those losses as required by ASC 740-270-30-36(a) and, (iii) discrete items including a $2.9 million benefit from the reversal of an unrecognized tax position due to statute expiration, a $1.4 million expense for interest on unrecognized tax positions, a $0.6 million expense to record a valuation allowance against investment write-downs which cannot be benefitted for tax purposes, and a $1.0 million benefit (net) related to the utilization of losses at a higher rate as allowed by the CARES Act. ​ The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily impacted by the mix of income generated among the jurisdictions in which the Company operates along with the exclusion of losses in the US Virgin Islands and India where the Company cannot benefit from those losses as required by ASC 740-270-30 36(a), in addition to the following discrete items: (i) a $1.3 million deferred tax benefit related to an investment tax credit, and (ii) a $0.5 million benefit from the reversal of a deferred tax liability due to an intercompany debt restructure. ​ The Company’s effective tax rate is based upon estimated income before provision for income taxes for the year, composition of the income in different countries, and adjustments, if any, in the applicable quarterly periods for potential tax consequences, benefits and/or resolutions of tax contingencies. The Company’s consolidated tax rate will continue to be impacted by any transactional or one-time items in the future and the mix of income in any given year generated among the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. While the Company believes it has adequately provided for all tax positions, amounts asserted by taxing authorities could materially differ from the Company’s accrued positions as a result of uncertain and complex application of tax law and regulations. Additionally, the recognition and measurement of certain tax benefits include estimates and judgment by management. Accordingly, the Company could record additional provisions or benefits for US federal, state, and foreign tax matters in future periods as new information becomes available. ​
