During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recognized income tax expense of $0.8 million on pre-tax income of $0.4 million, representing an effective income tax benefit rate of 208.5% compared to an income tax expense of $0.7 million on pre-tax income of $7.3 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 9.4% for the same period in 2013. The increase in the effective tax rate compared to the same period in 2013 is primarily the result of a pre-tax loss in the United States and lower pre-tax income in Austria and Poland for the third quarter of 2014. Since the Company maintains a full valuation allowance on all of its U.S. and Austrian deferred tax assets, income tax expense is recorded relative to the jurisdictions that recognize book earnings. In addition, the movement of exchange rates for intercompany loans denominated in U.S. dollars further impacts the Company’s effective income tax rate. Therefore, the Company’s overall effective income tax rate can be significantly impacted by foreign currency gains or losses.
