Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company's income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that arise during the period. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated annual effective tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment in such period. The Company's quarterly tax provision, and estimate of its annual effective tax rate, is subject to variation due to several factors, including variability in pretax income (or loss), the mix of jurisdictions to which such income relates, changes in how the Company does business, tax law developments and possible outcomes of audits. The Company's estimated effective tax rate for the year differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to non-deductible stock-based compensation expense, state taxes, the benefit of U.S. federal income tax credits, the impact of mandatory capitalization of research expenses for U.S. tax purposes, and the benefits related to foreign-derived intangible income deduction. The Company recorded an income tax provision of $10.8 million and $9.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of 18.5% and 19.7%, respectively. The increase in income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, was primarily due to the tax effect of an increase in pretax income and a decrease in excess tax benefits arising from stock-based compensation. The increase in income tax expense was partially offset by an increase in foreign derived intangible income benefit and an increase in research and development tax credit. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $12.7 million, of which $5.7 million, if recognized, would favorably impact the Company's effective tax rate. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $12.1 million, of which $5.3 million, if recognized, would favorably impact the Company's effective tax rate. Due to various factors, including uncertainties of administrative and regulatory processes in certain jurisdictions, the timing of the resolution of these unrecognized tax benefits is uncertain. It is reasonably possible that the Company may recognize approximately $1.9 million of its unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months if the statutes lapse in certain jurisdictions without an examination. The Company does not believe that its estimates, as otherwise provided for, on such tax positions, will materially increase within the next twelve months.
