15. 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 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016 primarily due to: (a) restructuring costs with minimal related tax benefit; (b) income in tax jurisdictions with lower statutory tax rates than the U.S.; (c) tax incentives granted to sites in Brazil, China, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam; and (d) losses in tax jurisdictions with existing valuation allowances. The material tax incentives expire at various dates through fiscal year 2021. Such tax incentives are subject to conditions with which the Company expects to continue to comply.
