Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Note 13 - Income Taxes We reorganized the Company in Bermuda in 1994 and many of our foreign subsidiaries are not directly or indirectly owned by a U.S. parent. As such, a large portion of our foreign income is not subject to U.S. taxation on a permanent basis under current law. Additionally, our intellectual property is largely owned by foreign subsidiaries, resulting in proportionally higher earnings in jurisdictions with lower statutory tax rates, which decreases our overall effective tax rate. The taxable income earned in each jurisdiction, whether U.S. or foreign, is determined by the subsidiary's operating results and transfer pricing and tax regulations in the related jurisdictions. For interim periods, our income tax expense and resulting effective tax rate are based upon an estimated annual effective tax rate adjusted for the effects of items required to be treated as discrete to the period, including changes in tax laws, changes in estimated exposures for uncertain tax positions and other items. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development has introduced a framework to implement a global minimum corporate income tax of 15%, referred to as “Pillar Two.” Many aspects of Pillar Two are effective for tax years beginning after January 1, 2024, with certain remaining aspects to be effective for tax years beginning January 1, 2025 or later. Certain countries have adopted legislation to implement Pillar Two, and other countries are in the process of introducing legislation to implement Pillar Two. We will continue to assess the impact of Pillar Two and monitor developments in legislation, regulation, and interpretive guidance. In response to Pillar Two, on May 24, 2024, Barbados enacted a domestic corporate income tax rate of 9%, effective beginning with our fiscal year 2025. As a result, we incorporated this corporate income tax into our estimated annual effective tax rate increasing our income tax provision during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. In addition, we revalued our existing deferred tax liabilities subject to the Barbados legislation, which resulted in a discrete tax charge of $6.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Additionally, Barbados enacted a domestic minimum top-up tax (“DMTT”) of 15% which applies to Barbados businesses that are part of multinational enterprise groups with annual revenue of €750 million or more and is effective beginning with our fiscal year 2026. We will continue to monitor and evaluate impacts as further regulatory guidance becomes available. For the three months ended May 31, 2024, income tax expense as a percentage of income before income tax was 66.1% compared to 15.5% for the same period last year. The year-over-year increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the Barbados tax legislation enacted during the first quarter of fiscal 2025, which resulted in a discrete tax charge of $6.0 million to revalue deferred tax liabilities and an increase in our income tax expense due to the change to our estimated annual effective tax rate arising from the legislation, partially offset by shifts in the mix of income in our various tax jurisdictions.
