Income Taxes

 

We recorded income tax expense of $10.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared with $7.2 million in the prior year comparable period. Our consolidated effective tax rate was 25.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared with 26.3% in the prior year period. Our effective tax rate varies from the 21% federal statutory rate primarily due to state taxes.

 

We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense. As of September 30, 2022, we had $2.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits compared with $2.5 million as of June 30, 2022. It is reasonably possible that various issues relating to approximately $0.5 million of the total gross unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2022 will be resolved within the next 12 months as exams are completed or statutes expire. If recognized, approximately $0.4 million of unrecognized tax benefits would reduce our income tax expense in the period realized.
