Income Taxes

Note 6 — Income Taxes

We operate in multiple jurisdictions with complex tax laws subject to interpretation and judgment. We believe that our application of such laws and the tax impact thereof are reasonable and fairly presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, we recognized income tax provision of $9.5 million and $22.5 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 24.4% and 38.8%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024 was higher than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the jurisdicational mix of earnings, certain non-deductible expenses and non-creditable foreign income taxes. The effective rate for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 was higher than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the non-deductibility of certain losses associated with the 2026 Notes Redemptions, which was characterized as a discrete event and reported in the first quarter. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, we recognized income tax expense of $8.3 million and $9.6 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 34.9% and 35.5%, respectively. The effective tax rates for these periods were higher than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to certain non-deductible expenses and non-creditable foreign income taxes.
