For the fiscal quarters ended October 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021, CRA’s effective income tax rate (“ETR”) was 25.3% and 14.8%, respectively. The ETR for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was higher than the third quarter of fiscal 2021 primarily due to a decrease in the tax benefit related to share-based compensation and foreign-derived intangible income, and higher nondeductible compensation paid to executive officers.
For the fiscal year-to-date periods ended October 1, 2022 and October 2, 2021, CRA's ETR was 26.7% and 22.0%, respectively. The ETR for the current fiscal year-to-date period was higher than the prior year-to-date period primarily due to a decrease in the tax benefit related to share-based compensation and foreign-derived intangible income, and higher nondeductible compensation paid to executive officers, partially offset by the impact of the U.K. statutory rate increase in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 that did not recur in the current period.
In fiscal 2020, as a result of both a qualitative and quantitative analysis, certain amounts of previously taxed and untaxed post fiscal 2018 U.K. earnings were no longer considered permanently reinvested. Deferred taxes that are a consequence of foreign exchange translation resulting from earnings that are no longer considered permanently reinvested are recorded as a component of foreign currency translation adjustments on the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. During the current fiscal year-to-date period, deferred taxes of $0.2 million have been recorded as a consequence of foreign exchange translation. Deferred income taxes or foreign withholding taxes, estimated to be $0.4 million, have not been recorded for other jurisdictions as those earnings are considered to be permanently reinvested.
