Income Taxes Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $2.0 million and $11.0 million, respectively, compared to income tax expense of $5.8 million and $13.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company's effective tax rates were 14.8% and 23.3%, respectively. The variance from the statutory federal tax rate of 21.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2020, was primarily due to booking as a discrete benefit the election to apply the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") high-tax exclusion, as outlined in the final Treasury Regulations issued on July 20, 2020, retroactively to years beginning after December 31, 2017. The variance from the statutory federal tax rate of 21.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily due to state taxes and booking, as a discrete benefit, the election to apply the GILTI high-tax exclusion, as outlined in the final Treasury Regulations issued on July 20, 2020, retroactively to years beginning after December 31, 2017.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the company's effective tax rates were 31.2% and 29.1%, respectively. The variance from statutory federal tax rate of 21.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, was primarily due to state taxes, the GILTI provision, non-deductible items and foreign rate differential.
