The Company’s ability to realize deferred tax assets is dependent on its ability to generate future taxable income. Accordingly, the Company has established a valuation allowance in taxable jurisdictions where the utilization of the tax assets is uncertain. Additional timing differences or future tax losses may occur which could warrant a need for establishing additional valuation allowances against certain deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance for the years ended July 31, 2013 and 2012 was $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively. The Company’s U.S. Federal net operating loss carry forward for income tax purpose is subject to various limitations under Sec 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. At July 31, 2013 and 2012, if recognized, the portion of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits that would favorably affect the Company’s effective tax rate is $17.2 million and $14.1 million, respectively. It is possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next twelve months, due to tax legislation updates or future audit outcomes; however an estimate of the range of the possible change cannot be made at this time. The following table summarizes the activities related to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits (in thousands):

It is the Company’s continuing practice to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of July 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company had accrued interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefits of $5.9 million, $5.6 million and $6.0 million, respectively. The Company is currently under audit by the states of New York and South Carolina from fiscal years 2008 to 2012. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examination for fiscal years prior to 2010, excepting the jurisdictions currently under audit. In fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized a tax benefit of $6.1 million, $4.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively, upon the exercise of certain stock options which is reflected in stockholders’ equity. The Company has not provided for U.S. federal income and foreign withholding taxes on its $80 million foreign subsidiaries’ undistributed earnings as of July 31, 2013, because the Company intends to reinvest such earnings indefinitely in the operations and potential acquisitions related to its foreign operations. Upon distribution of those earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to U.S. income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits). It is not practical to determine the income tax liability that might be incurred if these earnings were to be distributed.
