Note 16. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 25.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 21.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The effective tax rate was 26.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 22.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

The income tax provision was computed based on our estimated annualized effective tax rate and the full-year forecasted income plus the tax impact of unusual, infrequent, or nonrecurring items during the period. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was more than the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of foreign income taxed at higher rates, non-deductible expenses, and global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) tax. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was more than the federal statutory rate primarily due to foreign income tax at higher rates.

Cash paid for income taxes was $12.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and $20.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
