(b) For the twelve months ended October 31, 2018, the amount primarily includes $2.0 billion benefit in connection with the settlement of certain pre-separation Hewlett-Packard Company income tax liabilities indemnified through the Tax Matters Agreement with HP Inc. Further, as a result of the impact of U.S. Tax Reform, it also includes $2.0 billion tax benefit from the application of the new tax rules including a lower federal tax rate to deferred tax assets and liabilities, partially offset by a provisional estimate of $1.7 billion of transition tax expense on accumulated non U.S. earnings, and a provisional estimate of $687 million of tax expense on valuation allowance on foreign tax credits. In connection with the Everett Transaction, for the twelve months ended October 31, 2018, this amount also includes $208 million benefit primarily from foreign tax credits and from the release of non U.S. valuation allowances on deferred taxes established in connection with the Everett Transaction, following changes in foreign tax laws.
For the twelve months ended October 31, 2017, the amount primarily includes the income tax benefit related to the U.S. foreign tax credits generated as a result of the Everett and Seattle Transactions, partially offset by income tax expense as a result of recording valuation allowance on certain U.S. deferred tax assets.
