Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The provision for income taxes was $76.1 million in the third quarter of 2015, representing an effective tax rate of 29.3% on pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates of $259.5 million, as compared to $57.6 million in the third quarter of 2014, representing an effective tax rate of 29.1% on pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates of $197.7 million. The provision for income taxes was $210.9 million for the nine months ended September 26, 2015, representing an effective tax rate of 29.2% on pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates of $722.1 million, as compared to $163.1 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2014, representing an effective tax rate of 28.7% on pretax income before equity in net income of affiliates of $568.4 million. In the first nine months of 2015 and 2014, the provision for income taxes was primarily impacted by the level and mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions. The provision was also impacted by a portion of the Company’s restructuring charges and other expenses, for which no tax benefit was provided as the charges were incurred in certain countries for which no tax benefit is likely to be realized due to a history of operating losses in those countries. In the first nine months of 2015, the Company recognized net tax benefits of $32.0 million related to restructuring charges, debt redemption costs, acquisition costs and various other items. In the first nine months of 2014, the Company recognized net tax benefits of $26.8 million related to restructuring charges, debt redemption costs and various other items and net tax benefits of $13.4 million primarily related to reductions in tax reserves due to tax audit settlements and the release of valuation allowances with respect to deferred tax assets of certain foreign subsidiaries. Excluding these items, the effective tax rate in the first nine months of 2015 and 2014 approximated the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 35% adjusted for income taxes on foreign earnings, losses and remittances, valuation allowances, tax credits, income tax incentives and other permanent items. The Company’s current and future provision for income taxes is impacted by the initial recognition of and changes in valuation allowances in certain countries. The Company intends to maintain these allowances until it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company’s future provision for income taxes will include no tax benefit with respect to losses incurred and, except for certain jurisdictions, no tax expense with respect to income generated in these countries until the respective valuation allowances are eliminated. Accordingly, income taxes are impacted by changes in valuation allowances and the mix of earnings among jurisdictions. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis. In completing this evaluation, the Company considers all available evidence in order to determine whether, based on the weight of the evidence, a valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets is necessary. Such evidence includes historical results, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and expectations for future taxable income (exclusive of the reversal of temporary differences and carryforwards), as well as the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. If, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the Company’s deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded. If operating results improve or decline on a continual basis in a particular jurisdiction, the Company’s decision regarding the need for a valuation allowance could change, resulting in either the initial recognition or reversal of a valuation allowance in that jurisdiction, which could have a significant impact on income tax expense in the period recognized and subsequent periods. For further information, see Note 7, "Income Taxes," to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
