Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 30.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 27.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 30.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 16.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Excluding an immaterial correction of a prior period error of $371,000, income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes would have been 30.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of these temporary differences at June 30, 2013 and, therefore, did not establish a valuation reserve.
