Note 13 – Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $28.4 million and $8.4 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2020, respectively. The Company recorded income tax expense of $35.6 million and $42.5 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2019, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate increased this quarter compared to the prior year’s comparable quarter primarily due to a substantial decrease in the Company’s worldwide income and an increase in the valuation allowance related to the stand-alone net operating losses of the Company’s retail operations. In addition, the effective tax rate increased due to a discrete income tax charge in connection with the vesting of equity awards. Historically, the Company calculated the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for income for the entire year, excluding unusual or discrete items, to the reporting period. Due to the uncertainty related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations, the Company used a discrete effective tax rate method to calculate income taxes for the first and second quarters of fiscal 2021. However, due to the change in pre-tax income in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company has an equitable projection of the full year income and returned to the historical practice of using an annual effective tax rate based on full year fiscal year income.
