6. INCOME TAXES

 

For the three and six months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $1.0 million and $6.8 million, respectively, which was primarily attributable to net income from operations, including the gain on patent sale. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded accruals for state gross receipt and franchise taxes and released a portion of its valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset as the Company deemed it was more likely than not it would be used to offset the $0.3 million deferred tax liability recorded in connection with the acquisition of Zerigo. During the period ended September 30, 2011 the provision for income taxes was not significant due to the valuation allowance.

 

At March 31, 2012, there was $2.5 million of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would have affected the effective tax rate. The Company does not believe that there has been any significant change in the unrecognized tax benefits in the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2012 and does not believe it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefit will materially change in the next 12 months. To the extent that the unrecognized tax benefits are ultimately recognized they may have an impact on the effective tax rate in future periods.

 

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., California and various other states and foreign jurisdictions in which it has or had a subsidiary or branch operations or it is collecting sales tax. All tax returns from fiscal 1995 to fiscal 2012 may be subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, California and various other states. As of October 22, 2012, there were no active federal or state income tax audits. Returns filed in foreign jurisdictions may be subject to examination for the fiscal years 2009 to 2010.
