For the three and six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company determined that a small change in its estimated pretax results for the years ending March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, would create a large change in its expected annual effective rate. Accordingly, it was determined that a reliable estimate of the expected annual effective tax rate could not be made. As a result, the Company computed its tax benefit (provision) using the cut-off method, which reflects the actual taxes attributable to year-to-date earnings or losses.
The Company's income tax benefit (provision) differs from the federal statutory rate multiplied by pre-tax income (loss) due to the mix of the Company's pre-tax income (loss) generated across the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates and changes in the valuation allowance against the Company's deferred tax assets. In addition, the Company's income tax expense was impacted by certain minimum taxes imposed by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act").
The Company's income tax benefit (provision) can be affected by many factors, including the overall level of pre-tax income, the mix of pre-tax income generated across the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, changes in tax laws and regulations in those jurisdictions, further interpretation and legislative guidance regarding the Tax Act, changes in valuation allowances against its deferred tax assets, tax planning strategies available to the Company, and other discrete items.
