NOTE 6 — INCOME TAXES
The income tax benefit from continuing operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 reflects a $3.1 million benefit resulting from the early adoption of ASU 2016-09 as described in Note 2. As a result, tax deductions from vesting restricted stock units in excess of the book deductions are being recognized as a discrete item during the quarter ended March 31, 2016.
Certain tax authorities may periodically audit us, and we may occasionally be assessed interest and penalties by tax jurisdictions. We recognize accrued interest from uncertain income tax benefits in our income tax provision, while penalties are accrued in selling, general and administrative expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we did not record any interest expense related to uncertain income tax benefits. As of March 31, 2016, we had gross uncertain tax benefits of $2.5 million. If these benefits had been recognized, there would have been a $2.2 million decrease to annual income tax expense.
