The Company's estimated annual 2017 effective tax rate, excluding discrete events, is approximately 36%. Additionally, as noted in Note 11, the Company early adopted ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, applying the changes for excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies prospectively effective January 1, 2016. As a result, excess tax benefits and deficiencies are reported as an income tax benefit or expense on the statement of income rather than as a component of additional paid-in capital on the statement of equity. Excess tax benefits and deficiencies are treated as discrete items to the income tax provision in the reporting period in which they occur.

We file income tax returns in the U.S., state and foreign income tax returns jurisdictions. We are subject to U.S. examinations for tax years 2013 to present, and to non-U.S. income tax examinations for the tax years of 2012 to present. In addition, we are subject to state and local income tax examinations for the tax years 2012 to present. The Company continues to evaluate its need to file returns in various state jurisdictions. Any interest or penalties would be recognized as a component of income tax expense.
