6. Income Taxes

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million and tax benefit of $0.1 million, respectively. The Company recorded income tax expense of $0.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the same prior year periods. In computing its income tax provision, the Company estimates its effective tax rate for the full year and applies that rate to income earned though the reporting period. During the quarter, the Company recognized a benefit from research and development credits (“R&D Credits”) of $0.2 million and adjustments to its foreign income tax liability for 2014 tax return filings of approximately $0.1 million. The R&D Credits relate to the Company’s recent investment in information technology and the foreign income tax liability adjustment relates to the Company’s Canadian operations. Without such benefits, the Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 would be 39.7% compared to 42.1% for the same prior year period.
