Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was calculated using forecasted multi-jurisdictional annual effective tax rates to determine a blended annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to the actual and projected mix of earnings in non-U.S. jurisdictions with relatively higher tax rates, U.S. state and local income taxes, and other permanent differences (net).
The effective tax rate of 22.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was lower than the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily due to the net favorable impact of discrete items versus the year ago period. The favorable discrete items in the current period primarily related to the reversal of accruals for uncertain tax positions to account for the expiration of statue of limitations in jurisdictions outside the United States.
