Income Taxes Income Taxes
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 27.3% for the first quarter of 2021 and 25.6% for the first quarter of 2020. The increase in the effective income tax rate was primarily driven by the favorable tax benefit attributable to an income tax credit recorded during the first quarter of 2020, which did not reoccur in the first quarter of 2021.

The Company had uncertain tax positions, including accrued interest, of $2.7 million on April 2, 2021 and $2.6 million on December 31, 2020, all of which would affect the Company’s effective income tax rate if recognized. While it is expected the amount of uncertain tax positions may change in the next 12 months, the Company does not expect such change would have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Prior tax years beginning in year 2007 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, and various tax years beginning in year 1998 remain open to examination by certain state taxing authorities.
