INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXES
In general, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, to determine its quarterly provision for income taxes. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability on the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate may change from period-to-period based on recurring and non-recurring factors including the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation, state and local income taxes and tax audit settlements.

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations was expense of 589.2% and a benefit of 10.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the period ended September 30, 2020 was impacted by various discrete items including the tax impact of the United Kingdom Fruit business reserve, the enacted change in the United Kingdom's corporate income tax rate to 19% and a legal entity reorganization completed during the quarter ended September 30, 2020. In addition, the effective income tax rates from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were impacted by provisions in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"), primarily related to Global Intangible Low Taxed Income ("GILTI") and limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation. The effective income tax rates in each period were also impacted by the geographical mix of earnings and state valuation allowance.

In August 2020, the Company received $25,033 including $1,227 of interest from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") refund claim filed in July 2020. The remaining receivable balance of $28,694 is included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets as of September 30, 2020.
The income tax benefit from discontinued operations was $11,331 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, while the income tax expense from discontinued operations was $15,307 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The benefit for income tax for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was impacted by a legal entity reorganization allowing the Company to reduce the U.S. GILTI tax impact on the sale of the Tilda entities. The expense from income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was impacted by $16,500 of tax related to the tax gain on the sale of the Tilda entities.
