Income Taxes

3.      Income Taxes.  For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company recorded income tax expense of $563,000, or 57.3% of income before taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $670,000, or 29.8% of loss before taxes. The income tax provision (benefit) for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, is comprised of federal and state taxes. The primary differences between the Company’s March 31, 2013 and 2012 effective tax rates and the statutory federal rate are expenses related to equity compensation and nondeductible meals and entertainment.

As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has unrecognized tax benefits totaling $430,000, including interest, which relates to state nexus issues. The amount of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, that would affect the effective income tax rates of future periods is $430,000. Due to the current statute of limitations regarding the unrecognized tax benefits, the unrecognized tax benefits and associated interest is not expected to change significantly in 2013.
