We recorded a valuation allowance against all of our deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2019. Given our current earnings and anticipated future earnings, we believe that there was sufficient positive evidence available that allowed us to reach the conclusion that the valuation allowance will no longer be needed as of December 31, 2020. Release of the valuation allowance in 2020 resulted in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period the release is recorded.
