The 2023 effective income tax rate was unfavorably impacted by state and local income taxes and foreign income taxed at higher rates. This expense was offset by favorable benefits for the release of uncertain tax positions for statute of limitations lapses and federal tax credits.

The 2022 and 2021 effective income tax rates were unfavorably impacted by state and local income taxes, foreign income taxed at higher rates, as well as non-deductible executive compensation. Both 2022 and 2021 expenses were offset by favorable benefits for the release of uncertain tax positions, primarily related to statute of limitations lapses, and share-based compensation. The 2022 effective income rate was also favorably impacted by audit closures and a valuation allowance decrease.

 

In 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation & Development (“OECD”), with the support of over 130 countries, endorsed a framework (“Pillar Two”), which includes establishing a 15 percent global minimum corporate tax rate on a country-by-country basis. Numerous countries have adopted legislation in support of Pillar Two or are in the process of doing so, with certain rules becoming effective on January 1, 2024, and the remainder becoming effective on January 1, 2025. Any minimum tax arising from Pillar Two legislation is a period cost and does not impact the 2023 financial statements. The Company is continuing to monitor and evaluate Pillar Two legislation and does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s tax liability in 2024.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits (“UTBs”) is as follows:

The amount of UTBs that, if recognized as of December 30, 2023, would affect the Company’s effective tax rate is $25.6 million. It is reasonably possible that, within the next twelve months, total UTBs may decrease by $7.7 million primarily as a result of the lapse of statutes of U.S. federal, state and foreign income taxes.

The Company classifies interest and penalty accruals related to UTBs as income tax expense. In 2023, the Company recognized an interest and penalty expense of $1.2 million. In 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized an interest and penalty benefit of approximately $6.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively. As of December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had accruals for the payment of interest and penalties of $7.7 million and $8.8 million, respectively.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S., various state, and foreign jurisdictions. In 2022, the Company concluded its examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service for the periods related to 2017 and 2018 and is generally subject to examination by the IRS for years 2020 and later. In addition to the U.S., the Company has tax years that remain open and subject to examination by tax authorities in the following major taxing jurisdictions: Canada for years after 2018, Mexico for years after 2017 and China for years after 2017.

As of December 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had deferred tax assets related to net operating losses and other tax carryforwards of $27.5 million and $23.5 million, respectively. Approximately $4.5 million expires between 2024 and 2028, and the remainder will expire in 2029 and thereafter.

The Company has provided a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of certain deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance is $15.1 million in 2023 and $13.8 million in 2022. Management has concluded that, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be fully realized.

Accumulated foreign earnings and profits of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries as of December 31, 2017, were subject to a deemed repatriation tax and should not be subject to additional U.S. federal income tax upon an actual repatriation of these earnings. As of December 30, 2023, the Company has recorded an estimated deferred tax liability of $0.6 million for taxes that will be payable upon distribution of these earnings.

Subsequent to December 31, 2017, we consider the unremitted earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that impose local country taxes on dividends to be indefinitely reinvested. We have not provided deferred taxes on the remaining book over tax outside basis difference of $242.3 million related to these subsidiaries. The amount of unrecognized deferred tax liabilities for local country withholding taxes that would be owed related to these earnings is $15.7 million.
