This excerpt taken from the ELN 6-K filed Aug 28, 2009. 8 INCOME
TAX
The components of the current tax expense for the years ended
30 June were as follows:
The income tax expense of $27.4 million for the first half
of 2009 (2008: $4.0 million), reflects tax at standard
rates in the jurisdictions in which we operate, the availability
of tax losses, foreign withholding tax and exempt income derived
from Irish patents.
The deferred tax expense of $24.3 million for the first
half of 2009 (2008: $0.6 million) primarily relates to the
utilisation of tax benefits relating to U.S. deferred tax
assets (DTA).
