Table of Contents
The overall effective tax rate will continue to be dependent upon the geographic distribution of our earnings or losses and changes in tax laws or
interpretations of these laws in these operating jurisdictions. We monitor the assumptions used in estimating the annual effective tax rate and make
adjustments, if required, throughout the year. If actual results differ from the assumptions used in estimating our annual income tax rates, future
income tax expense could be materially affected.
Our future effective tax rates could be adversely affected by lower earnings than anticipated in countries with lower statutory rates, changes in the
relative mix of taxable income and taxable loss jurisdictions, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets or liabilities or changes in tax laws
or interpretations thereof. In addition, our income tax returns are subject to continuous examination by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax
authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income
taxes. To the extent we prevail in matters for which accruals have been established or are required to pay amounts in excess of such accruals, our
effective tax rate could be materially affected.
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was $6.8 million, $10.5 million and $4.6 million, respectively, in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011. As
discussed above, in September 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of Brightstar's fifty percent ownership interest in BEL. Net income
attributable to noncontrolling interest represents Brightstar's portion of the operating results of BEL prior to the Company’s acquisition in
September 2012.
