The provision for income taxes differed from the provision computed by applying the Federal statutory rate to income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes due to the following:
The effective income tax rate was 18.9% and (141.8)% during the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The decrease in 2019 compared to statutory tax rate of 21% was primarily due to deferred tax adjustments related to foreign tax credit carryforwards and state taxes, offset by changes in the valuation allowance and excess tax benefits resulting from the exercise of non-qualified stock options.
The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31,2018 was significantly impacted by recording a substantial increase in a valuation allowance on the entire deferred tax assets.

(1) Vessel Calendar Days is the total number of days the vessels were in our fleet.
(2) Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) Rate, results from Net Voyage Revenue divided by total TCE days.
The change in Voyage revenue is due to two main factors:
i)  The number of TCE days
ii)  The change in the TCE rate achieved.
With regards to i), the decrease in vessel calendar days is mainly due to the disposal of ten vessels in 2018, offset by three 2018 Newbuildings delivered in the latter part of 2018.
With regards to ii), the TCE rate increased by $8,560, or 65.4%. The indicative rates presented by Clarksons Shipping increased by 91.7% for the twelve months of 2019 compared to the same twelve months in 2018 to $31,560 from $16,466, respectively. The rates presented by Clarksons Shipping were significantly influenced by the spike in the Suezmax tanker rates in the fourth quarter of both 2019 and 2018. Our average TCE was also positively impacted by the increased tanker rates towards the end of 2019, but not to the same extent as the rates reported by Clarksons Shipping. We expect this spike to materialize to a larger extent in the first quarter of 2020 compared to the rates reported by Clarksons Shipping.
As a result of i) and ii) net voyage revenues increased by 41.5% from $124.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, to $175.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The unaudited pro forma financial information for all periods presented included the business combination accounting effects resulting from these acquisitions, including amortization charges from acquired intangible assets (certain of which are preliminary), stock-based compensation charges for unvested restricted stock-based awards and stock options assumed, if any, and the related tax effects as though the aforementioned companies were combined as of the beginning of fiscal 2018. The unaudited pro forma financial information as presented below is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisitions had taken place at the beginning of fiscal 2018 or 2019.
The unaudited pro forma financial information for fiscal 2019 presented the historical results of Oracle for fiscal 2019 and certain other companies that we acquired since the beginning of fiscal 2019 based upon their respective previous reporting periods and the dates these companies were acquired by us, and the effects of the pro forma adjustments listed above.
The unaudited pro forma financial information for fiscal 2018 combined the historical results of Oracle for fiscal 201 8 and the historical results of Aconex for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2017 (adjusted due to differences in reporting periods and considering the date we acquired Aconex) and certain other companies that we acquired since the beginning of fiscal 201 8 based upon their respective previous reporting periods and the dates these companies were acquired by us, and the effects of the pro forma adjustments listed above.

A.6.1 Capital structure
The increase in short-term debt and current maturities of long-term debt was due mainly to reclassifications of long-term euro and U. S. dollar instruments totaling € 3.9 billion from longterm debt. This was partly offset by € 3.3 billion resulting from the repayment of U. S. dollar instruments.
The decrease in current income tax liabilities was driven mainly by the reversal of income tax provisions outside Germany and tax payments in the context of the carve-out activities related to Siemens Healthineers.
Long-term debt increased due primarily to the issuance of euro instruments totaling € 6.5 billion and currency translation effects for bonds issued in the U. S. dollar. This was partly offset by the above-mentioned reclassifications of euro and U. S. dollar instruments.
The increase in provisions for pensions and similar obligations was due mainly to a lower discount rate. This effect was partly offset by a positive return on plan assets, among other factors.
The main factors for the increase in total equity attributable to shareholders of Siemens AG were € 5.2 billion in net income attributable to shareholders of Siemens AG; the re-issuance of treasury shares of € 1.6 billion; and positive other comprehensive income, net of income taxes of € 0.4 billion, resulting mainly from positive currency translation effects of € 1.8 billion, partly offset by negative effects from remeasurements of defined benefit plans of € 1.1 billion. This increase was partly offset by dividend payments of € 3.1 billion (for fiscal 2018) and the repurchase of 13,532,557 treasury shares at an average cost per share of € 99.78, totaling € 1.4 billion (including incidental transaction charges).

Cash Flows
The following table sets forth selected consolidated cash flow information (in thousands):
Operating Activities Net cash provided by operating activities during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 was primarily due to increased accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, decreased inventories and non-cash expenses, partially offset by increased contract assets and accounts receivable. The increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities is primarily due to the timing of collections on accounts receivable sold under the securitization programs and the timing of purchases and cash payments. The decrease in inventories is primarily due to the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and the reclassification to contract assets for revenue recognized for over time customers, partially offset by an increase in inventories to support expected sales levels in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The increase in contract assets is due to the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and the timing of revenue recognition for over time customers. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily driven by the amended and new securitization programs and higher sales and timing of collections.
Investing Activities Net cash used in investing activities during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 consisted primarily of capital expenditures principally to support ongoing business in the DMS and EMS segments and expenditures for assets acquired in connection with the initial and second closings of the acquisition of certain assets of JJMD, partially offset by proceeds and advances from the sale of property, plant and equipment and cash receipts on sold receivables under the asset-backed securitization programs.
Financing Activities Net cash used in financing activities during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 was primarily due to: (i) payments for debt agreements, (ii) the repurchase of our common stock, (iii) dividend payments and (iv) treasury stock minimum tax withholding related to vesting of restricted stock. Net cash used in financing activities was partially offset by: (i) borrowings under debt agreements and (ii) net proceeds from the exercise of stock options and issuance of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan.
