The effective tax rate was 24.5% and 25.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and 24.8% and 18.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The effective tax rate reflects net excess tax benefits associated with the appreciation or depreciation in the Company's share price upon vesting of employee share-based awards above or below the original grant price of $103 and $12,130 being recognized in the Company's Provision for Income Taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and resulted in a reduction in the effective tax rate of 0.1 and 6 percentage points for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effective tax rate for 2020 and 2019 also reflects the effect of certain nondeductible expenses, including expenses related to Class J LP Units and Class I-P and K-P Units, as well as the noncontrolling interest associated with LP Units and other adjustments.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, no additional income tax expense associated with the GILTI provisions has been reported and it is not expected to be material to the Company’s effective tax rate for the year.
