NOTE 9: INCOME TAXES
The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of U.S., state and local, and foreign taxes. The Company has significant operations in various locations outside the U.S. The annual effective tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the earnings in the various locations at their applicable statutory tax rates.
The Company’s income tax provision was $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was an income tax provision of 29.2% on pre-tax income of $3.9 million which differs from the statutory federal rate of 21% primarily due to state and local taxes, non-deductible permanent differences, limited benefit on current year interest deductions and losses in certain jurisdictions, the change in the fair value of warrant liabilities, foreign income at different rates and the U.S. tax effect of international operations including Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) recorded during the period.
The Company’s income tax benefit was $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was an income tax benefit of 23.4% on a pre-tax loss of $15.7 million. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory federal rate of 21% primarily due to certain non-deductible expenses including transaction costs, the change in the fair value of warrant liabilities, stock-based compensation expense and the U.S. tax effect of international operations including GILTI recorded during the period.
At both March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had an uncertain tax position liability of $0.2 million, including interest and penalties. The unrecognized tax benefits include amounts related primarily to various state and foreign tax issues.
