The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and various state and foreign jurisdictions. Tax statutes and regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to interpretation and require the application of significant judgment.  The Company is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for year 2015; one state jurisdiction for years 2016 through 2018; and one state jurisdiction for years 2016 and 2017. The Company does not expect the resolution of these examinations to have a material impact on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

The effective income tax rate in FY2020, FY2019, and FY2018, was 20.0 percent, 19.0 percent, and (0.8) percent, respectively. The effective income tax rate increased in FY2020 primarily as a result of pretax book income increasing more than favorable credits and permanent items.  In each period, the effective income tax rate was favorably affected by excess tax benefits from employee stock-based payment awards as well as a benefit from the research and development tax credit.

U.S. income taxes have not been provided for undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that have been permanently reinvested outside the United States. As of June 30, 2020, the estimated deferred tax liability associated with these undistributed earnings is approximately $1.4 million.

The Company’s total liability for unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was approximately $8.8 million, $1.5 million and $4.1 million, respectively. Any amount, if recognized, would positively impact the Company’s effective tax rate. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized benefits is shown in the table below (in thousands):

The Company recognizes net interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense.  Over the next 12 months, the Company does not expect a significant increase or decrease in the unrecognized tax benefits recorded at June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the entire balance of unrecognized tax benefits is included in other long-term liabilities.
