[1] Given the low level of income in absolute dollars in Fiscal 2016, effective tax rate reconciling items that may have been considered de minimis in prior years in terms of absolute dollars and on a percentage basis were amplified on a percentage basis in Fiscal 2016 even as the absolute dollar value of the reconciling items were similar to prior years. Accordingly, year over year comparability may be difficult as a result of the amplifying effect of the lower levels of income.
[2] U.S. branch operations in Canada and Puerto Rico are subject to tax at the full U.S. tax rates. As a result, income from these operations do not create reconciling items.
[3] The Company incurred discrete non-cash income tax charges of $9.6 million and 10.6 million for Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017, respectively, primarily related to the expiration of certain share-based compensation awards, recognized in income tax expense (benefit) due to changes in share-based compensation accounting standards adopted by the Company in Fiscal 2017.
