Effective Tax Rate.
−Removed: The effective tax rate decreased 750 bps to 15.4% for the first nine months of 2022, compared to 22.9% in the prior year period, primarily driven by the revaluation of state deferred tax liabilities due to state legislative changes and the favorable mix of our incremental income in low tax jurisdictions in the current period, partially offset by the unfavorable comparison to the excess tax deductions that were generated from the vesting of RSUs during the first nine months of 2021.
+Added: The effective tax rate decreased 390 bps to 19.6% for the first quarter of 2023, compared to 23.5% in the prior year period, primarily driven by the tax benefit received from favorable adjustments upon foreign tax return filing and excess tax deductions that were generated from the vesting of RSUs during the first quarter of 2023.
Net Income Attributable to KDP.
−Removed: Net income attributable to KDP decreased $320 million, or 24.6%, to $983 million for the first nine months of 2022 as compared to $1,303 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by lower income from operations, increased interest expense, and the unfavorable change in loss on early extinguishment of debt, partially offset by the decrease in our effective tax rate.
+Added: Net income attributable to KDP decreased $118 million, or 20.2%, to $467 million for the first quarter of 2023 as compared to $585 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by lower income from operations and the unfavorable comparison to the gain in the prior year period for the sale of our equity method investment in BodyArmor, partially offset by reduced interest expense, the favorable comparison to the loss on extinguishment of debt in the prior year, and the decrease in our effective tax rate.
Diluted EPS decreased 19.5% to $0.33 per diluted share as compared to $0.41 in the prior year period.
