14.Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The largest item affecting deferred taxes is the difference between book and tax amortization of goodwill and other intangibles amortization. The Company’s effective tax rate was 38.1% and 38.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was 33.9% and 37.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was relatively flat when compared to the same period in 2016. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 is lower than the corresponding period in 2016 due to the release of the reserve for uncertain tax positions and for excess stock compensation benefit recognized, slightly offset by changes in state deferred income tax rates. |
