Income Taxes

We recorded a $0.3 million tax benefit, or 17% effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and $0.8 million tax provision, or 38% effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a $2.7 million tax provision, or 21% effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and $5.9 million tax provision, or 24% effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Income tax expense is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate, which requires management to make its best estimate of annual pretax income or loss. During the year, management regularly updates forecasted annual pretax results for the various countries in which the Company operates based on changes in factors such as prices, shipments, product mix, material inflation and manufacturing operations. To the extent that actual 2024 pretax results for U.S. and foreign income or loss vary from estimates, the actual income tax expense recognized in 2024 could be different from the forecasted amount used to estimate the income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, cash paid for taxes, net of refunds received, were $3.6 million and $5.9 million, respectively.
