16. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% during the three months and six months ended February 29, 2016 and February 28, 2015 primarily due to: (a) income in tax jurisdictions with lower statutory tax rates than the U.S.; (b) tax incentives granted to sites in Brazil, China, Malaysia, Poland, Singapore and Vietnam; and (c) losses in tax jurisdictions with existing valuation allowances. The material tax incentives expire at various dates through 2020. Such tax incentives are subject to conditions with which the Company expects to continue to comply.
