INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXES
Our effective income tax rate was 1.1% and (0.2)% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and (1.1)% and 11.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Our effective income tax rate can differ from the 21% U.S. federal statutory rate due to a number of factors, including foreign rate differences, tax incentives, non-deductible expenses, non-taxable income, increases or decreases in valuation allowances and liabilities for uncertain tax positions and excess tax benefits or shortfalls on stock compensation awards.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the difference between our effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate was primarily attributable to non-deductible goodwill impairments.
For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the difference between our effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate was primarily attributable to a $58 million tax benefit related to a tax-deductible foreign statutory loss on an investment in a foreign subsidiary, as well as changes related to our ability to realize tax credit carryforwards based on a favorable tax ruling in a foreign jurisdiction.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the difference between our effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate was primarily attributable to a $58 million tax benefit related to a tax-deductible foreign statutory loss on an investment in a foreign subsidiary, as well as a favorable geographic earnings mix and changes related to our ability to realize tax credit carryforwards based on a favorable tax ruling in a foreign jurisdiction.
