The Company’s provision for income taxes consists principally of state and local, and foreign taxes, as applicable, in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date tax provision with the effective rate that it expects to achieve for the full year.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $33,437. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was (9.9%). The effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate of 21% due to the mix of foreign and domestic earnings and the application of valuation allowances. As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s conclusion did not change with respect to the realizability of its domestic deferred tax assets and therefore, the Company has not recorded any income tax benefit as such amounts are fully offset with a valuation allowance.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $223,830. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was (20.9%). The effective tax differs from the statutory rate of 21% primarily related to the mix of foreign and domestic earnings as no tax expense or benefit is being recognized on domestic earnings or losses. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s conclusion did not change with respect to the realizability of its domestic deferred tax assets and therefore, the Company has not recorded any income tax expense as such amounts are fully offset with a valuation allowance.

The Company’s total unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest, at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $81,399 and $134,246, respectively. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had $35,499 and $63,404, respectively, of accrued interest reflected in accrued expenses. The Company expects approximately $7,000 of tax benefits during the next twelve months due to expiring statute of limitations, which will impact the Company's effective tax rate.
