16. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% during the three months and nine months ended May 31, 2016 and 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; (c) losses in tax jurisdictions with existing valuation allowances; and (d) tax benefits from favorable audit resolutions and expiration of statutes in non-U.S. jurisdictions during the three months and nine months ended May 31, 2016. The material tax incentives expire at various dates through fiscal year 2020. Such tax incentives are subject to conditions with which the Company expects to continue to comply.
