The Company's process for determining the provision for income taxes involves using an estimated annual effective tax rate which is based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates across the various jurisdictions in which we operate. We recorded a provision for income tax expense of $7.5 million and $27.4 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 compared with $7.9 million and $24.4 million in the prior year comparable periods. Our consolidated effective tax rate was 25.1% and 25.4% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 compared with 24.2% and 25.4% in the prior year periods. 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 March 31, 2023, we had $3.3 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 March 31, 2023 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. |
