NOTE
12.
INCOME TAXES
 
The Company's effective income tax rate for the 
three
months ended  
March 31, 2020
, was a benefit of
19.0%.
This effective rate approximates the federal statutory rate of 
21.0%
 due to offsetting changes in our valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and lapse in applicable statute of limitations for certain uncertain tax positions. The Company's effective income tax rate for the
three
months ended 
March 31, 2019
, was a benefit of
100.2%.
The difference between the federal statutory rate of 
21.0%
 and the Company's effective tax rate for the
three
months ended 
March 31, 2019
, is primarily due to changes in our valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and lapse in the applicable statute of limitations for certain uncertain tax positions. 
 
The Company entered into an indemnification agreement with the prior owners of Cadillac Jack (acquired in
May
of
2015
) whereby the prior owners have agreed to indemnify the Company for changes in tax positions by taxing authorities for periods prior to the acquisition. As of
March 31, 2020
, an indemnification receivable of
$0.6
 million has been recorded in other assets in the financial statements. This amount includes the indemnification of the original pre-acquisition tax positions along with any related accrued interest and penalties and is offset by a corresponding liability for unrecognized tax benefits in other long-term liabilities. When the related unrecognized tax benefits are favorably resolved, a corresponding charge to relieve the associated indemnification receivable would be recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.
 
During the
three
months ended
March 31, 2020
, the Company recognized a
$3.2
 million reduction in the indemnification receivable and related charges in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income primarily due to lapse in the applicable statute of limitations on indemnified tax positions. During the
three
months ended
March 31, 2019
, the Company recognized a
$5.5
million reduction in the indemnification receivable and related charges in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income primarily due to lapse in the applicable statute of limitations on indemnified tax positions.
