Income Taxes

The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and selling, general and administrative expense, respectively. The Company has classified unrecognized tax benefits as non-current because payment is not anticipated within one year of the balance sheet date.

As of March 31, 2015, the Company's gross unrecognized tax benefits totaled $0.5 million which includes $0.2 million of interest and penalties. The Company estimates that the unrecognized tax benefits will not change significantly within the next year.

The Company files federal and state income tax returns in several domestic and foreign jurisdictions. In most tax jurisdictions, returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities for a number of years after the returns have been filed. With limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service for tax years through 2008. With respect to state and local tax jurisdictions and countries outside the United States, with limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax audits for tax years before 2008.
