Effective Income Tax Rate

The U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and the Company's effective income tax rate are as follows:

	Three months ended
	November 30, 2021		November 30, 2020
U.S. federal statutory income tax rate	21.0	%	21.0	%
Effective income tax rate	23.9	%	29.6	%

The effective income tax rate decreased for the three months ended November 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended November 30, 2020, primarily due to decreased losses in tax jurisdictions with existing valuation allowances for the three months ended November 30, 2021.

The effective income tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21.0% during the three months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, primarily due to: (i) losses in tax jurisdictions with existing valuation allowances and (ii) tax incentives granted to sites in China, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam
