| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Income Taxes | Income Taxes For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, our provision for income taxes, as a percentage of income before income taxes was 42.8 percent and 41.2 percent, respectively, compared with a U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0 percent. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, our provision for income taxes, as a percentage of income before income taxes was 34.5 percent and 49.2 percent, respectively, compared with a U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0 percent.
The difference between the effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, was primarily attributed to operations in foreign countries which are treated as a branch for U.S. tax purposes, partially offset by foreign derived intangible income deduction.
The difference between the effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, was primarily attributed to operations in foreign countries which are treated as a branch for US tax purposes and current year foreign losses that presently do not provide future tax benefit, partially offset by foreign tax credits.
The difference between the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to September 30, 2024, was primarily caused by adjustments to deferred tax assets in the current period.
The difference between the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to September 30, 2024, was primarily caused by a decrease in foreign losses year over year that presently do not provide future tax benefit, favorable adjustments to valuation allowances recorded during 2025, and a year over year increase to income resulting in tax adjustments having a smaller rate impact in the current period compared to the prior period.
Our U.S. federal income tax returns for 2021 through 2023 are open to examination for federal tax purposes. We have several foreign tax jurisdictions with open tax years from 2019 through 2024.
As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had accrued $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively, related to unrecognized tax positions net of offsetting tax attributes.
Interim income taxes are based on an estimated annualized effective tax rate applied to the respective quarterly periods, adjusted for discrete tax items in the period in which they occur. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, we can make no assurance that the final tax outcome of these matters will not be different from that which we have reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals. Such differences could have a material impact on our income tax provision and operating results in the period in which we make such a determination.
