Note 3 — Income Taxes

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company remains subject to examination by U.S. federal and state and foreign tax authorities for the years 2015 through 2017. The Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate was 25.8% and 23.7% in second quarter 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 25.2% and 22.9% in first half 2019 and 2018, respectively. The higher tax rates in 2019 principally reflect higher state and foreign income tax expense, including the effects of certain international tax provisions relating to U.S. tax reform legislation that became effective at the beginning of 2018.
