INCOME TAXES
The Company’s income tax expense was $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to an income tax benefit of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The Company’s tax expense (benefit) in each period differs from the amount resulting from applying statutory rates primarily due to foreign operations in lower tax jurisdictions, tax reserve adjustments, valuation allowance adjustments and benefits recorded for tax credits.
The Company’s total unrecognized tax benefits were approximately $21.3 million as of March 31, 2014. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits could be reduced upon closure of tax examinations or if the statute of limitations on certain tax filings expires without assessment from the relevant tax authorities. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that there could be a reduction in unrecognized tax benefits during the next 12 months of approximately $1.7 million.
