The Company's effective tax rate decreased to 11.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2024, down from 16.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate principally reflects a larger tax benefit from stock option exercises recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The Company recognized a discrete tax benefit from stock option exercises in both the first quarter of fiscal 2024 and 2023 of $13.6 million and $6.2 million, respectively.
