Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expenses of $1.7 million, a 28.8% effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The effective tax rate is higher than the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to state taxes, income in higher tax jurisdictions and an inclusion for global intangible low taxed income. An income tax expense of $0.6 million, a 34.4% effective tax rate, was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2018 which was also higher than the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to state taxes, income in higher tax jurisdictions and an inclusion for global intangible low taxed income.
 
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. Federal income tax, as well as income tax of multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2019, the Company is subject to U.S. Federal income tax examinations for the years 2015 through 2017 and income tax examinations from various other jurisdictions for the years 2011 through 2017.

Earnings from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. A distribution of these non-U.S. earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise may subject the Company to foreign withholding taxes and U.S. federal and state taxes.
