The Corporation’s income tax expense increased in the current periods relative to the comparable prior-year periods driven by higher profit. The variation in the effective tax rate quarter-over-quarter was primarily due to favorable year-to-date adjustments recorded in the third quarter of 2023 related to the Kimball International acquisition. The significantly higher tax rate in the prior-year-to-date period was driven by non-deductible transaction costs incurred in 2023 in connection with the acquisition.
