INCOME TAXES
We file U.S. federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions.
The Company has recorded accruals to cover uncertain tax positions taken on previously filed tax returns. Such liabilities relate to additional taxes, interest and penalties the Company may be required to pay in various tax jurisdictions. During the course of examinations by various taxing authorities, proposed adjustments may be asserted. The Company evaluates such items on a case-by-case basis and adjusts the accrual for uncertain tax positions. During the quarter ended September 30, 2013 we had net decreases to our accruals related to a reassessment of previous and current uncertain tax positions offset by increases during the first and second quarter of 2013. Our balance at September 30, 2013 is materially the same as at December 31, 2012.
