Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES We use an estimated annual effective tax rate ("AETR") to measure the income tax expense or benefit recognized on a year-to-date basis in an interim period. In addition, certain items included in income tax expense as well as the tax impact of certain items included in pretax income must be treated as discrete items. The income tax expense or benefit associated with these discrete items is fully recognized in the interim period in which the items occur. Altice USA For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recorded a tax benefit of $15,964 on pre-tax loss of $87,235. The effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to the increase in tax deficiencies on share-based compensation. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded tax expense of $2,924 on pre-tax loss of $9,972, resulting in an effective tax rate that was higher than the U.S. statutory tax rate. The higher tax rate was primarily due to the impact of state tax expense, certain non-deductible expenses, and tax deficiencies on share-based compensation.
