Income Taxes
As of September 30, 2014, an unrecognized tax benefit of $3.4 million was recorded in income tax payable, which, if recognized, would decrease the Company’s effective tax rate. All of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefit is due to the settlement with the United States of America, which was announced September 30, 2011. On July 30, 2014, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued a notice of proposed adjustment asserting that a portion of the original tax deduction claimed by the Company associated with the settlement with the United States of America should be disallowed. The Company advised the IRS that it disagreed with the proposed adjustment. In October 2014, the IRS issued a 30-day letter, formally asserting their position. The Company intends to vigorously defend its original position of the deductibility of the full settlement amount on its 2011 tax return.
