Deferred Tax Liability Not Recognized, Events that Would Cause Temporary Difference to be Taxable, Undistributed Earnings of Foreign Subsidiaries As a result of an audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for fiscal years 2013 through 2015, on October 13, 2021, we received a Notice of Proposed Adjustment (“NPA”) from the IRS for the 2014 fiscal year relating to a series of reorganizations we undertook during that year in connection with the business realignment of our corporate and management reporting structure along brand lines. The IRS asserts that these reorganizations involved taxable distributions of approximately $6.0 billion. We expect to receive the Revenue Agent’s Report (“RAR”) including the IRS’s calculation of the tax assessment in the second quarter of 2022. Based on the NPA, the amount of additional tax to be proposed is expected to be material. We disagree with the IRS’s position as asserted in the NPA and intend to contest it vigorously by filing a protest disputing on multiple grounds any proposed taxes and proceeding to the IRS Office of Appeals.The final resolution of this matter is uncertain, but the Company believes that it is more likely than not the Company’s tax position will be sustained; therefore, no reserve is recorded with respect to this matter. An unfavorable resolution of this matter could have a material, adverse impact on our consolidated Financial Statements in future periods.
