INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 15.9% and 26.3%, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the effective tax rate reflects discrete income tax benefits of $11.9 million resulting from the reversal of the valuation allowance against Brazilian deferred tax assets, $10.5 million relating to return-to-provision adjustments that resulted from the filing of the 2022 U.S. federal income tax return, and $7.6 million resulting from the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards. The return-to-provision adjustments were primarily related to increased U.S. foreign tax credit utilization. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the effective tax rate reflects a discrete income tax benefit of $3.2 million resulting from the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards, partially offset by discrete income tax expense of $0.8 million resulting from return-to-provision adjustments. These discrete income tax items reduced the effective tax rates in such periods by approximately 10.8 and 0.7 percentage points, respectively.
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 20.4% and 24.0%, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the effective tax rate reflects discrete income tax benefits of $29.7 million resulting from the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards, $11.9 million resulting from the reversal of the valuation allowance against Brazilian deferred tax assets, and $10.5 million relating to return-to-provision adjustments that resulted from the filing of the 2022 U.S. federal income tax return. The return-to-provision adjustments were primarily related to increased U.S. foreign tax credit utilization. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2022, the effective tax rate reflects discrete income tax benefits of $13.4 million resulting from reductions to the valuation allowance recorded against U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards, as well as the exercise and vesting of stock-based awards of $9.4 million, partially offset by discrete income tax expense of $0.8 million resulting from return-to-provision adjustments. These discrete income tax items reduced the effective tax rates in such periods by approximately 6.6 and 2.6 percentage points, respectively.
The effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory income tax rate due primarily to state income taxes, nondeductible expenses, and the U.S. tax impact of international operations.
There have been no material adjustments to liabilities for uncertain tax positions since December 31, 2022.
