INCOME TAXES:
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended May 31, 2016, and May 31, 2015, was 31.9% and 31.5%, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the three months ended May 31, 2016, and May 31, 2015, were lower than the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to lower effective tax rates applicable to our foreign businesses. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended May 31, 2015, also benefited from a decrease in uncertain tax positions.
During the three months ended August 31, 2015, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) concluded its examination of our fiscal years ended February 28, 2010, and February 28, 2011. We received a Revenue Agent’s Report (“RAR”) from the IRS proposing tax assessments for those years. We disagree with certain assessments in this report and have submitted a written protest stating our formal disagreement with the conclusions presented in the RAR. We believe that our position will be successfully sustained.
