The Company is required to calculate its interim income tax provision using the estimated annual effective tax rate (“AETR”) method prescribed by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740-270, and as such, excludes losses in jurisdictions where the Company cannot benefit in computing its worldwide AETR. A separate AETR is computed and applied to ordinary losses in the U.S. jurisdiction as required by ASC 740-270-30-36(a). For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded U.S. federal, state, and foreign income tax expense of $0.9 million.

The AETR differed from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% due primarily to a full valuation allowance against the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets, income in foreign jurisdictions that are taxed at varying rates, the tax effect of unrealized foreign exchange, and the tax impact of executive and share-based compensation expense.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded income tax benefit of $0.7 million. The estimated worldwide AETR differed from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% due primarily to a full valuation allowance against the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets, income in foreign jurisdictions that are taxed at higher rates than the U.S. federal rate, and the impact of discrete items that may occur in any given year but are not consistent from year to year.

The Company has established a valuation allowance in the U.S. against its deferred tax assets because it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In determining whether deferred tax assets are realizable, the Company considers numerous factors including historical profitability, the amount of future taxable income and the existence of taxable temporary differences that can be used to realize deferred tax assets.
The Company applies ASC 740, the accounting standard addressing the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which prescribes rules for recognition, measurement and classification in the financial statements of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company has gross unrecognized tax benefits of $1.5 million and $1.2 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
