The increase in the income tax expense in fiscal 2015 as compared to the prior two fiscal years was primarily related to the foreign currency translation adjustment on the Company's Euro-denominated debt due to the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Euro, which is designated as a net investment hedge.
