(1)Includes a $2.0 million, $2.3 million and $3.3 million foreign permanent tax benefit related to an inflation index adjustment allowed under Mexico tax law for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

(2)The global intangible low-taxed income tax (“GILTI tax”) provisions for foreign operations in the U.S. federal tax code became effective in 2018, and based on preliminary IRS guidance, the Company recognized $1.1 million and $0.8 million of income tax expense in 2019 and 2018, respectively, as a result of the GILTI tax. In July 2020, the Internal Revenue Service finalized regulations for the GILTI tax. The finalized regulations effectively eliminated the impact of the incremental GILTI tax to the Company and permitted retroactive application. As a result, the Company recognized a $1.9 million income tax benefit in 2020 related to the reversal of the 2019 and 2018 GILTI tax expense.
