The Company's forecasted effective tax rate at June 30, 2015 is 36.0%, a 4.0% increase from the 32.0% effective tax rate recorded at December 31, 2014. The forecasted effective tax rate of 36.0% excludes jurisdictions for which no benefit from forecasted current year losses is anticipated. Including losses from such jurisdictions results in a forecasted effective tax rate of 36.6%. Our forecasted effective tax rate could fluctuate significantly on a quarterly basis and could change, to the extent that earnings in countries with tax rates that differ from that of the U.S. differ, from amounts anticipated at June 30, 2015.

After discrete tax benefit of $8, the effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 is 36.4%. The discrete tax benefit is primarily attributable to tax benefits of share-based compensation.
