INCOME TAXES Income Taxes
The effective tax rate on the loss from continuing operations was 27.0 percent and 20.7 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was attributable to current quarter pre-tax losses. The tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily attributable to the jurisdictional mix of income and loss, valuation allowance on certain interest expense carryforwards, partially offset by discrete tax adjustments for uncertain tax positions, tax return to provision differences and expired stock compensation.

The effective tax rate on the loss from continuing operations was 12.8 percent and (16.6) percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was attributable to then current quarter pre-tax losses. The tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to gain recognized for tax purposes on the surrender of Company-owned life insurance (COLI) plans, partially offset by release of valuation allowance against U.S. foreign tax credits expected to be utilized against current year income tax.
