Income Tax Income Tax
Our effective tax rate may vary from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate due to the change in the mix of earnings in various foreign and state jurisdictions with different statutory rates, the use of previously unbenefited tax loss carryforwards to reduce foreign taxes, benefits related to tax credits, and the tax impact of non-deductible expenses, stock award activities and other permanent differences between income before income taxes and taxable income. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was 20.6% and 27.8%, respectively, and the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was 28.8% and 21.8%, respectively. The variance from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) limitation on deduction for officer compensation, other non-deductible items, and change in reserve, which were partially offset by the foreign derived intangible income tax benefit. The variance from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to the tax deductions related to the foreign derived intangible income tax benefit as well as the research and development tax credits, which were partially offset by the Section 162(m) limitation during the period.
