INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXES
The tax provision for interim periods is determined using the estimated annual effective consolidated tax rate, based on the current estimate of full-year earnings and related estimated full year-taxes, adjusted for the impact of discrete quarterly items.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, was 28.5% and 31.0%. The reported effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was favorably impacted by additional excess tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation of $1.4 million and benefits reflecting changes in the U.S. global intangible low taxed income ("U.S. GILTI") tax for the current year of $1.5 million.
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was 29.4%. The nine month effective tax rates reflect a favorable impact from the excess tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation of $8.7 million and $13.6 million, respectively, offset by the unfavorable impact from losses in jurisdictions where the tax benefit is not recognized and other discrete items of $5.1 million and $10.9 million, respectively.
