The Company's effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 23.9% and 24.4%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 23.4% and 24.3%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% principally due to subpart F income (i.e., global intangible low-taxed income, or "GILTI," earned by the Company's foreign subsidiaries), foreign income tax rate differentials, state and local taxes, changes in the Company's uncertain tax positions, the excess tax benefit related to stock-based compensation and certain other permanent items.
The OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) has proposed a global minimum effective tax of 15.0% on income arising in each jurisdiction ("Pillar 2") that has been agreed upon in principle by over 140 countries. During 2023, many countries took steps to incorporate Pillar 2 model rule concepts into their domestic laws. Although the model rules provide a framework for applying the minimum tax, countries may enact Pillar 2 slightly differently than the model rules and on different timelines and may adjust domestic tax incentives in response to Pillar 2. Accordingly, the Company is evaluating the potential consequences of Pillar 2 on its longer-term financial position. In 2024, the Company does not expect Pillar 2 to have a material impact on its financial results.
