Income taxes | NOTE 11 – Income taxes: In the first quarter of 2020, Teva recognized a tax benefit of $59 million, on pre-tax loss of $33 million. In the first quarter of 2019, Teva recognized a tax expense of $9 million, on pre-tax loss of $84 million. Teva’s tax rate for the first quarter of 2020 was mainly affected by impairments in jurisdictions in which tax rates are higher than Teva’s average tax rate on its ongoing business operations. The statutory Israeli corporate tax rate is 23% in 2020. Teva’s tax rate differs from the Israeli statutory tax rate, mainly due to generation of profits in various jurisdictions in which tax rates are different than the Israeli tax rate, tax benefits in Israel and other countries, as well as infrequent or nonrecurring items. Teva filed a claim seeking the refund of withholding taxes paid to the Indian tax authorities in 2012. Trial in this case is scheduled to begin in July 2020 . A final and binding decision against Teva in this case may lead to an impairment in the amount of $136 million.
