INCOME TAXES

Income taxes for the three months ended February 29, 2020 included $10.4 million of discrete tax benefits consisting principally of the following: (i) $9.9 million of tax benefits associated with an intra-entity asset transfer that occurred during the first quarter under the provisions of ASU No. 2016-16, (ii) $1.8 million of excess tax benefits associated with share-based compensation, and (iii) $1.4 million of expense related to the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities resulting from enacted legislation in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions.

Income taxes for the three months ended February 28, 2019 included $17.6 million of discrete tax benefits consisting principally of the following: (i) $16.2 million of tax benefits associated with an intra-entity asset transfer that occurred during the first quarter under the provisions of ASU No. 2016-16, which was adopted on December 1, 2018, and (ii) $1.6 million of excess tax benefits associated with share-based compensation.

Other than additions for current year tax positions, there were no significant changes to unrecognized tax benefits during the three months ended February 29, 2020.

As of February 29, 2020, we believe the reasonably possible total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that could increase or decrease in the next 12 months as a result of various statute expirations, audit closures, and/or tax settlements would not be material to our consolidated financial statements.
