Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES The following table provides a summary of the Company's effective tax rate:
| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
| 2022 |  | 2021 |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Reported tax rate | 15.1 | % |  | 14.9 | % |  | 14.8 | % |  | 24.1 | %
The Company’s effective income tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were 15.1% and 14.9%, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the primary driver of the higher tax rate is a decrease of income in lower-taxed jurisdictions, offset by a $1.2 million benefit related to prior year amended tax returns. The Company’s effective income tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were 14.8% and 24.1%, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the primary driver of the lower tax rate is a $5.5 million benefit related to excess tax benefits from stock compensation, offset by the prior year tax impact of the gain on the sale of the Extremity Orthopedics business, which was completed during the first quarter of 2021. Changes to income tax laws and regulations, in any of the tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates, could impact the effective tax rate. Various governments, both U.S. and non-U.S., are increasingly focused on tax reform and revenue-raising legislation. Further, legislation in foreign jurisdictions may be enacted, in response to the base erosion and profit-sharing project begun by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development ("OECD"). The OECD recently finalized major reform of the international tax system with respect to a global minimum tax rate. Such changes in U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions could have an adverse effect on the Company’s effective tax rate. On August 16, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. The Act imposes a Corporate Minimum Tax of 15% on book income profits greater than $1 billion. The company is not expected to be subject to the Corporate Minimum Tax. The act provides for credits for investments in clean energy production, and the Company is exploring whether those credits align with any plans it may develop for clean energy production. The Act imposes an excise tax of 1% on share repurchases. Beginning in 2023, all share repurchases shall be subject to the excise tax, but the Company does not expect the excise tax to impact the company’s capital deployment plans. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has not provided deferred income taxes on unrepatriated earnings from foreign subsidiaries as they are deemed to be indefinitely reinvested unless there is a manner under which to remit the earnings with no material tax cost. Material taxes would primarily be attributable to foreign withholding taxes and local income taxes when such earnings are distributed. The Company will repatriate foreign earnings when there is no need for reinvestment overseas and there is no material cost to bring the earnings back to the United States. Reinvestment considerations would include future acquisitions, transactions, and capital expenditure plans. As such, the Company has determined the tax impact of repatriating these foreign earnings would not be material as of September 30, 2022.
