Chewy is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. Income taxes as presented in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on Chewy’s separate return method. The Company’s losses and tax attributes were previously included in PetSmart’s consolidated tax return activity at the U.S. federal level and any applicable state and local level.

The Company did not have a current or deferred provision for income taxes for any taxing jurisdiction during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2022, and August 1, 2021. Additionally, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.
Concurrent with its initial public offering during the fiscal year ended February 2, 2020, the Company, PetSmart, and Argos Holdco entered into a tax sharing agreement which governs the respective rights, responsibilities, and obligations of the Company, PetSmart, and Argos Holdco with respect to tax matters, including taxes attributable to PetSmart, entitlement to refunds, allocation of tax attributes, preparation of tax returns, certain tax elections, control of tax contests and other tax matters regarding U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes.

During the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2022, and August 1, 2021, the Company collected $0.5 million and $42.4 million, respectively, pursuant to the tax sharing agreement. The tax sharing agreement was effectively terminated for federal income taxes upon tax deconsolidation with PetSmart, however, there may be future settlements upon final adjustment to the consolidated federal tax returns. The tax sharing agreement remains in effect for certain states in which the Company continues to file with Argos Holdco.
