Income Taxes

The Company follows guidance under ASC Topic 740-270 Income Taxes, which requires that an estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to year-to-date ordinary income (loss). At the end of each interim period, the Company estimates the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. The tax effect of discrete items is recorded in the quarter in which the discrete events occur.

The Company recorded income tax expense of $3.9 million and $7.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and an expense of $13.0 million and $36.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was favorably impacted by lower profits in non-US jurisdictions and additional tax credits recorded during the period. This was partially offset by legislative changes in Brazil where a local tax incentive is no longer being exempt from Federal income tax beginning in 2024. Additionally, tax expense of $0.5 million related to equity-based compensation, was recorded discretely. No tax benefit was recorded on the goodwill impairment recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as the goodwill is non-deductible for income tax purposes. The tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was unfavorably impacted by higher income reported in non-U.S. jurisdictions, offset by a tax benefit of $1.2 million related to equity-based compensation recorded discretely.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, no reserves for uncertain tax positions have been recorded. The Company will continue to monitor this position each interim period.
