n/a - not applicable (a) Primarily attributable to the establishment of a valuation allowance on our interest limitation carryforward deferred tax asset that was not expected to be realized because of a reduction in our deferred tax liabilities caused by the goodwill impairment charge in the second quarter of 2024. This impact was partially offset by amounts realized in connection with the filing of our tax returns in certain international jurisdictions.
