[2] During fiscal 2023, we incurred a significantly higher consolidated pre-tax loss totaling $(28.4) million, compared with a much lower consolidated pre-tax loss totaling $(325,000) during fiscal 2022 and pre-tax income totaling $10.9 million during fiscal 2021. As a result, the principal differences between income tax expense at the U.S. federal income tax rate and the effective income tax rate reflected in the consolidated financial statements were more pronounced for fiscal 2022 and 2021, compared with fiscal 2023.
[3] Our consolidated effective income tax rate during fiscal 2023 was much more negatively affected by the mix of earnings and losses between our U.S. operations and foreign subsidiaries, as compared with fiscal 2022 and 2021. During fiscal 2023, we incurred a significantly higher pre-tax loss from our U.S. operations totaling $(33.5) million, compared with $(7.6) million and $(4.7) million for fiscal 2022 and 2021, respectively. As a result, a significantly higher income tax benefit was not recognized due to a full valuation allowance being applied against our U.S. net deferred income tax assets during fiscal 2023, as compared with
fiscal 2022 and 2021. In addition, almost all of our taxable income for each of fiscal 2023, 2022, and 2021 was earned by our foreign operations located in China and Canada, which have higher income tax rates than the U.S.
