Effective income tax rate	11.9%	10.5%	8.8%	14.7%

The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 26, 2016 was 11.9% and 8.8%, respectively, and 10.5% and 14.7% for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 26, 2016, as compared to the prior year period, reflects a tax benefit associated with a reduction in the estimated deferred tax with respect to non-permanently reinvested income as a result of an increase in the estimated foreign tax credits available to reduce the U.S. tax on future repatriations. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 26, 2016 also reflects an expense associated with a shift in income to jurisdictions with higher tax rates. Additionally, the effective income tax for the six months ended June 26, 2016 reflects a tax benefit associated with the settlement of a foreign tax audit.
