7. Income Taxes

Our effective tax rates from continuing operations were 20.8% and 18.9% in the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased compared to the prior year period primarily due to an increase in the percentage of earnings from operations in higher taxed jurisdictions and a limitation of tax benefits on certain executive compensation. The income tax provisions reflect the U.S. federal tax rate of 21% adjusted for taxes related to global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”), limitation of tax benefits on certain executive compensation, the rate of tax applied by state and local jurisdictions, the rate of tax applied to earnings outside the U.S., tax incentives, tax credits related to research and development expenditures, changes in valuation allowance, liabilities for uncertain tax positions, and tax benefits on stock-based compensation.

RUSM and RUSVM each have agreements with their respective domestic governments that exempt them from local income taxation. RUSM has an exemption in Barbados until 2039 and RUSVM has an exemption in St. Kitts until 2038.
