Income Taxes

20. Income Taxes — Income tax expense was $1,362 for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to income tax benefit of $205 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was 30.6%, and is based on the rates in the territories in which the Company operates. The rate has decreased compared to prior years reflecting mix of income in different jurisdictions. The effective tax rate is based on the projected income for the full year and is subject to ongoing review and adjustment by management.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 the effective rate was 31.0%. In addition, during that period, the Company benefited from two discrete income tax benefits. First, the Company assessed its income tax positions to account for the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) which was signed into law on March 27, 2020. A provision of the act modified the amount of interest deduction allowed and therefore reduced the Company’s 2019 Global Intangible Low Tax Income (“GILTI”) inclusion. Second, the Company benefited from the tax impact of the vesting of certain stock grants. These benefits did not recur in the same period of the current year.

The Florida Department of Revenue has completed its audit of the Company’s state income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2012 through December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2018. No adjustments have been proposed for these periods. The Company has also been notified by the Mississippi Department of Revenue of its intent to examine the Company’s state income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2016 through December 31, 2018. The result of Mississippi’s audit is not determinable since the audit is at its preliminary stage.
