NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES

Our forecasted annual effective tax rate (“AETR”) at September 30, 2023 was (6.5)%, as compared to 4.3% at September 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily the impacts from changes in foreign rate differential, adjustments in foreign derived intangible income and a change in valuation allowance as compared to current-year forecasted ordinary income considered in determining the forecasted AETR.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our effective tax rate (“ETR”) was (6.9)% and 5.2%, respectively. The increase in the ETR for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is a result of favorable discrete items related to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation in the prior year quarter that were not present in the current year quarter.
