NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES

Our forecasted annual effective tax rate (“AETR”) at March 31, 2023 was 4.8%, as compared to 6.66% at March 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily due to changes in foreign rate differential, adjustments in foreign derived intangible income and a change in valuation allowance as a result of changes in estimates of current-year ordinary income considered in determining the forecasted AETR.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, our effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 4.8% and 143.35%, respectively. The decrease in the ETR for the three months ended March 31, 2023 is a result of favorable discrete items related to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation in the prior quarter that were not present in the current quarter.
