Note 5. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily from tax law changes in India and the resolution of certain U.S. tax matters, partially offset by decreased tax benefits for employee share-based compensation.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily from foreign earnings taxed at lower foreign tax rates, tax law changes in India and the resolution of certain U.S. tax matters, partially offset by incremental tax reserves and state taxes.
