The Company determines the tax provision for interim periods using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of annual effective tax rate, and if its estimated tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment.

The effective tax rate decreased from 24.1% during the three months ended June 30, 2023 to 23.2% during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The Company recorded income tax expense of $13,873 and $15,554 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily as a result of lower profit during the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, partially offset by higher credits during the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023.
The effective tax rate increased from 19.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 22.6% during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The Company recorded income tax expense of $27,626 and $23,612 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in income tax expense was primarily as a result of lower excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, and an increase in non-deductible expenses, partially offset by lower profit during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s subsidiaries in India repatriated $18,255 (net of $996 withholding taxes) to the United States.
