Note 18. - Income Tax

The effective tax rate for the periods presented has been established based on management’s best estimates, taking into account the tax treatment of permanent differences and tax credits.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, income tax amounted to a $6,050 thousand expense with respect to a profit before income tax of $16,848 thousand. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, income tax amounted to a $33,128 thousand expense with respect to a profit before income tax of $37,614 thousand. The effective tax rate differs from the nominal tax rate mainly due to unrecognized tax loss carryforwards and permanent tax differences in some jurisdictions.
