For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the difference between the Company’s recorded provision and the provision that would result from applying the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily attributable to: (1) losses generated within the U.S. and certain jurisdictions outside the U.S., for which no benefit was recognized due to management’s conclusion that it was more likely than not that the tax benefits would not be realized, (2) the results from operations in jurisdictions outside the U.S., and (3) changes in audit reserves.

The  difference between the Company’s recorded provision and the benefit that would result from applying the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 is primarily attributable to: (1) losses generated within the U.S. and certain jurisdictions outside the U.S. for which no benefit was recognized due to management’s conclusion that it was more likely than not that the tax benefits would not be realized (2) the results from operations in jurisdictions outside the U.S., and (3) a provision associated with foreign withholding taxes on undistributed earnings.
