INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were 24.7 percent (provision on income) and 64.4 percent (benefit on a loss), respectively. The effective income tax rates for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were 28.0 percent (benefit on a loss) and 5.7 percent (benefit on a loss), respectively. The change in both periods was primarily driven by the asset impairment charges recorded in the current and prior fiscal years, the tax impact on the sale of certain non-core businesses, lower relative U.S. current year earnings compared with the rest of the world in the current periods where the tax rates are generally lower and a favorable impact in the current quarter related to a U.S. provision to return adjustment. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 also includes the favorable effects of the permanent extension of the credit for increasing research activities contained in the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015 which occurred in the second quarter of this fiscal year.
