During the three months ended October 31, 2010, the Company's quarterly tax rate decreased to 30.8% from 36.1% in the prior year's comparable quarter. This decrease was due to the favorable mix of earnings in certain foreign jurisdictions, the current year federal rehabilitation credit and favorable revisions to state tax estimates resulting from tax return filings. The Company expects the annual effective tax rate to be approximately 34% for the full year.
On February 28, 2006, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program. The program authorizes the Company to purchase up to 8,000,000 shares of our common shares from time-to-time, based upon prevailing market conditions.
