8 – Income Taxes


The Company included accruals for unrecognized income tax benefits totaling $1.5 million as a component of accrued liabilities as of June 30, 2014, and $1.4 million as of June 30, 2013. The unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would impact the Company’s effective tax rate. An unfavorable settlement would require a charge to income tax expense and a favorable resolution would be recognized as a reduction to income tax expense. The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits in income tax expense. The Company had accrued interest of $81,000 at June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, related to unrecognized tax benefits. No amounts were accrued for penalties.


The Company does not anticipate a significant change in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months. As of June 30, 2014, the tax years ended December 31, 2010 through 2013, remained subject to audit by federal tax authorities and the tax years ended December 31, 2009 through 2013, remained subject to audit by state tax authorities.
