Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for uncertain income tax positions using a benefit recognition model with a two-step approach, a more-likely-than-not recognition criterion and a measurement attribute that measures the position as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). If it is not more likely than not that the benefit will be sustained on its technical merits, no benefit will be recorded. Uncertain tax positions that relate only to timing of when

We record a deferred tax asset or liability based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities, as measured by the enacted tax rates assumed to be in effect when these differences reverse. As of March 31, 2009, management determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized and, therefore, a valuation allowance has not been recorded.

Income Taxes.

        Beginning January 1, 2007, the Company began accounting for uncertain income tax positions using a benefit recognition model with a two-step approach, a more-likely-than-not recognition criterion and a measurement attribute that measures the position as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" (FIN 48). If it is not more likely than not that the benefit will be sustained on its technical merits, no benefit will be recorded. Uncertain tax positions that relate only to timing of when an item is included on a tax return are considered to have met the recognition threshold. As a result of the adoption of FIN 48 there was no change to the tax reserve for unrecognized tax benefits. As such, there was no change to retained earnings as of January 1, 2007. It is the Company's policy to classify accrued interest and penalties as part of the accrued FIN 48 liability and record the expense in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2008, income tax related interest and penalties were immaterial. Our U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2005 through 2007 remain subject to examination, and our state income tax returns for 2006 and 2007 remain subject to examination.

        We record a deferred tax asset or liability based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities, as measured by the enacted tax rates assumed to be in effect when these differences reverse. As of December 31, 2008, management determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized and, therefore, a valuation allowance has not been recorded.

Income taxes. Provisions for income taxes were $357,751 and $634,033 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  Provisions for income taxes were $921,182 and $1,797,377 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  The year-to-date effective tax rates for the provision were 26.7% and 29.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  The decrease in effective tax rate was primarily due to an increase in a Massachusetts investment tax credit as a result of the expenditures related to the Company’s facility project.  On October 3, 2008 the Senate passed a financial bailout bill which included the extension of Federal research tax credit to December 31, 2009.  This extension will have a favorable impact on the Company’s full year effective tax rate beginning in the quarter ending December 31, 2008.

 

During the third quarter of 2008, the Company concluded its audit by the Massachusetts Department of Revenue (“DoR”) for its 2004 and 2005 tax returns, which resulted in a reduction to its FIN 48 tax reserves and a related income tax benefit of approximately $100,000. Also during the third quarter, the Company recorded additional provision of $93,000 related to the reduction of its deferred tax assets as a result of newly enacted changes to the State of Massachusetts to gradually reduce future corporate income tax rates. The impact of these two events on the Company’s tax provision was approximately equal and offsetting. Our U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2005, 2006, and 2007 remain subject to examination, and our state income tax returns for the years 2006 and 2007 remain subject to examination.

Income taxes. Provisions for income taxes were $235,830 and $574,611 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  Provisions for income taxes were $563,431 and $1,163,344 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  The year to date effective tax rates for the provision were 28.3% and 31.2%, respectively.  The decrease in effective tax rate was primarily due to an increase in a Massachusetts investment tax credit as a result of the expenditures related to the Company’s facility project.

Income taxes. Provision for income taxes was $327,601 and $588,733 related to income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The effective tax rates for the provision in the first quarter of 2008 and 2007 were 34.7% and 32.9%, respectively. The increase in effective tax rate was primarily due to our exclusion of any federal R&D tax credit pending re-enactment of the federal research credit, and a decrease in state investment tax credit as a result of the timing of the Company’s facility project.

                Income taxes.  Provision for income taxes was $634,033 and $961,536 related to income for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $1,797,377 and $2,519,579 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The effective tax rate for the provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 were 26.1% and 29.2%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 were 42.1% and 41.5%, respectively. The reduction in effective tax rate in 2007 is primarily due to a favorable impact of a state investment tax credit as a result of the new facility project, a domestic manufacturing deduction, an increase in state and federal research and development credits, and the tax benefits realized from disqualifying events related to incentive stock option exercises.

Income taxes.  Provision for income taxes was $1,720,000 and $3,441,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $734,000 and $1,841,000 for the same periods last year. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was approximately 40%. As a result of the receipt of the $20,000,000 milestone payment in February 2004 from Ortho Biotech, the operating results and forecasted future income supported an assertion that ultimate realization of our deferred tax assets is more likely than not.  Accordingly, we fully released the valuation allowance and recorded a one-time tax benefit of $7,039,000 which is reflected in the results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.
