Income Taxes INCOME TAXES
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate was 26% and 23%, respectively. The higher effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to limitations on the deductibility of compensation and a lower excess tax benefit on share-based compensation which was partially offset by the favorable impact from the mix of earned income in certain foreign jurisdictions.
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate was 20% and 24%, respectively. The lower effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to the favorable impact from discrete benefits recorded as a result of amending prior year federal tax returns and an increase in excess tax benefits on share-based compensation in relation to overall lower pre-tax book income.
The Company provides valuation allowances against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. During the period ended September 30, 2024, the Company did not record any additional valuation allowances in various jurisdictions on its deferred tax assets.
For the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not record any new uncertain tax positions.
