6. Income Taxes
In order to determine the quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company used an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter during which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.
The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 primarily relates to income tax in certain foreign jurisdictions.
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits increased by $0.05 million. The Company does not anticipate its unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly over the next 12 months. There were no accrued interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2014.
The Federal examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the years 2010 and 2011 was completed during the three months ended March 31, 2014. Any impact from the audit was included in the 2013 financial statements. The California examination of the 2008 and 2009 years was completed during the three months ended March 31, 2013 with no adjustment to taxable income.
