9. Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 reflects effective tax rates of 24.7% and 31.4%, respectively. The provision for income taxes for continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 reflects effective tax rates of 23.9% and 31.4%, respectively. The decrease in the tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Priory, which is located in a lower taxing jurisdiction and for which earnings are permanently reinvested.
