Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

As of March 31, 2020, we had approximately $3.1 million in total gross unrecognized tax benefits. Of this amount $3.1 million, if recognized, would be recorded through the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We are currently under examination for our U.S. federal income taxes under the Internal Revenue Service's Compliance Assurance Program for 2019 and are subject to examination by numerous other taxing authorities in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. We are generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by taxing authorities for years prior to 2012.

In the first quarter of 2020, we recorded a $7.6 million valuation allowance on certain foreign deferred tax assets. We concluded that it was no longer more likely than not that these foreign tax loss carryforwards would be realized due to the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our European manufacturing facilities and the resulting downturn in the related business.
