Note 13: Income Taxes

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in tax expense on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company had approximately $1.9 million and $4.7 million of net interest and penalties accrued as of October 1, 2021 and October 2, 2020, respectively. It is reasonably possible that $43.2 million of its uncertain tax positions will be reduced in the next 12 months due to settlement with tax authorities or expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

The Company maintains a partial valuation allowance on its U.S. state deferred tax assets and a valuation allowance on foreign net operating losses and tax credits in certain foreign jurisdictions, a substantial portion of which relate to Japan net operating losses, which are projected to expire prior to utilization.

Tax years prior to 2017 are generally not subject to examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") except for items involving tax attributes that have been carried forward to tax years with statutes of limitations that remain open. The Company is currently under IRS examination for the 2017 tax year. For state tax returns, the Company is generally not subject to income tax examinations for tax years prior to 2016. The Company is also subject to routine examinations by various foreign tax jurisdictions in which it operates. With respect to jurisdictions outside the United States, the Company is generally not subject to examination for tax years prior to 2011. The Company believes that adequate provisions have been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company’s tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with the Company's expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs.
