Note 11 – Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $6,187 and $7,508 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and an income tax expense of $0 and $178 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019,

respectively. The change in income tax provision was primarily due to changes in pretax income (loss) in the United States and certain foreign entities and changes in tax rates. The income tax rates vary from the Federal and State statutory rates due to the valuation allowances on the Company’s net operating losses, foreign tax rate differences and withholding taxes. The Company computes its quarterly income tax provision by using a forecasted annual effective tax rate and adjusts for any discrete items arising during the quarter.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”).  As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $16,440 and $15,084, respectively. These unrecognized tax benefits are currently included in the Company’s deferred tax assets, which are subject to full valuation allowance. As such, these unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would not have an impact on the Company’s effective tax rate.

The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and various foreign jurisdictions. The material jurisdictions subject to examination by tax authorities are primarily the State of California, United States, Canada, and India. The Company’s federal tax returns are open by statute for tax years 1998 and forward and California tax returns are open by statute for tax years 2003 and forward and could be subject to examination by the tax authorities. The Company’s income tax returns in its international locations are open by statute for tax years 2012 and forward.

 

The Company does not provide for federal income taxes on the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries as such earnings are to be reinvested indefinitely outside the U.S.
