Income Tax Benefit/Expense
7. Income Tax Benefit/Expense

Income tax expense was $9.8 million for the second quarter of 2012, as compared to $13.5 million for the second quarter of 2011. The decrease was driven primarily by utilization of net operating losses during the second quarter of 2012 that were not present during 2011 and release of reserves due to expiration of the statute of limitations associated with uncertain tax positions taken on returns in Latin America.
