Note 15. Income Taxes

As a result of the Company’s history of net operating losses (“NOL”), the Company had historically provided for a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets for assets that are not more-likely-than-not to be realized, which was partially released in the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The Company’s income tax expense/(benefit) for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $87.0 million and (0.7) million, respectively. For the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized a non-cash income tax charge of $87.0 million, substantially reflecting a discrete non-cash charge for an additional valuation allowance on excess stock compensation benefits associated with the Livongo merger, partially offset by tax benefits on current period losses. This discrete charge also resulted in a $106.5 million measurement period reduction to goodwill.

The Company’s income tax benefit for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 primarily related to the amortization of acquired intangibles.
