| Income Taxes | Income Taxes The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 28, 2026, was 26.4% compared to 31.8% for the same period in fiscal 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lapping the discrete impact of changes in indefinite reinvestment assertions for certain foreign entities in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 (approximately 850 basis points), partially offset by impacts resulting from the divestiture of Starbucks retail operations in China in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 (370 basis points). The effective tax rate for the three quarters ended June 28, 2026, was 36.5% compared to 26.5% for the same period in fiscal 2025. The increase was primarily due to the $273 million discrete impact of changes in indefinite reinvestment assertions as a result of classifying Starbucks retail operations in China as held for sale in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 (approximately 640 basis points), impacts resulting from the divestiture of Starbucks retail operations in China in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 (approximately 240 basis points) and lapping the discrete impact of a tax status change for a certain foreign entity in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 (approximately 130 basis points).
