This process involves estimating actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial reporting purposes. These differences result in deferred income tax assets and liabilities Additionally, the Company currently has significant deferred tax assets and other deductible temporary differences including basis differences between intangible assets. The Company does not provide a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as the Company believes that it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will be realized based on available evidence including scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and other tax planning considerations. The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740 as it relates to uncertain tax positions. This interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. ASC 740 states that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information. As of December 31, 2012, the liability related to unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $327,000. The Company recorded an additional liability of $7,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2013 related to interest and penalties on prior year tax positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The following table summarizes the activity related to the unrecognized tax benefits for the period ended June 30, 2013 (in thousands): <table style="WIDTH: 85%; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman, Times, serif;

The Company operates in multiple taxing jurisdictions and faces audits from various tax authorities. The Company remains subject to examination until the statute of limitations expires for the respective tax jurisdiction. The Company does not anticipate that the amount of the unrecognized benefit will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. Undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are considered indefinitely reinvested and, accordingly, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes has been recorded. Deferred taxes are provided for earnings outside the United States when those earnings are not considered indefinitely reinvested. falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaThe entire disclosure for income taxes.
