On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 was enacted into law, which, among other things, introduces a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax on book income of certain large corporations and creates a 1% excise tax on net share repurchases. The corporate alternative minimum tax will be effective in fiscal 2024, and the excise tax applies to share repurchases made after December 31, 2022. The corporate alternative minimum tax and the excise tax are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
