Income Taxes
 
The effective tax rate for fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008 was impacted by the generation of income in tax-paying jurisdictions in certain countries in Europe, the U.S., and Canada, and the recognition of valuation allowances on tax benefits generated from losses in the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, France, and Australia. During fiscal 2009, the Company established a full valuation reserve of $13.3 million on its net deductible temporary differences and loss carry forwards related to its Australian operations. In addition, the income tax provision for fiscal 2009 decreased as a result of the removal of $3.1 million in valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets generated from the Company’s Austrian and Mexican operations. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2008 was impacted by the recognition of $26.6 million of valuation allowances on current year tax benefits generated primarily in the UK, France and Spain. In addition, the income tax provision for fiscal 2008 increased $16.7 million due to a reduction in the deferred tax assets for Germany due to legislation enacted during the period which reduced the Company’s German subsidiaries’ marginal tax rate from approximately 37% to approximately 28%. Finally, the income tax provision for fiscal 2008 decreased as a result of the removal of a $25.0 million valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets generated from the Company’s U.S. operations.
