Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | Income Tax The Company estimates its annual effective income tax rate at the end of each quarterly period. The estimate takes into account the geographic mix of expected pre-tax income (loss), expected total annual pre-tax income (loss), enacted changes in tax laws, implementation of tax planning strategies and possible outcomes of audits and other uncertain tax positions. To the extent there are fluctuations in any of these variables during a period, the provision for income taxes may vary. The Company’s provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 was $18 million (20% of income before taxes) and $19 million (26% of income before taxes), respectively. The effective tax rate was lower for the three months ended March 29, 2025 primarily due to change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings, and favorable discrete tax events, including a $3 million benefit from stock compensation. The Company’s provision for income taxes for the six months ended March 29, 2025 and March 30, 2024 was $33 million (19% of income before taxes) and $40 million (26% of income before taxes), respectively. The effective tax rate was lower for the six months ended March 29, 2025 primarily due to a change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings, and favorable discrete tax events, including a $3 million benefit from a change in tax law, and a $4 million benefit from stock compensation. As a result of an audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for fiscal 2008 through 2010, the Company received a Revenue Agent’s Report (“RAR”) on November 17, 2023 asserting an underpayment of tax of approximately $8 million for fiscal 2009. The asserted underpayment results from the IRS’s proposed disallowance of a $503 million worthless stock deduction in fiscal 2009. Such disallowance, if upheld, would reduce the Company’s available net operating loss carryforwards and result in additional tax and interest attributable to fiscal 2021 and later years, which could be material. The Company disagrees with the IRS’s position as asserted in the RAR and is vigorously contesting this matter through the applicable IRS administrative and judicial procedures, as appropriate. The Company does not expect resolution of this matter within twelve months and cannot predict with any certainty the timing of such resolution. Although the final resolution of this matter remains uncertain, the Company continues to believe that it is more likely than not the Company’s tax position will be sustained. However, an unfavorable resolution of this matter could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”), an international association of 38 countries, including the United States, has proposed changes to numerous long-standing tax principles, namely, its Pillar Two framework, which imposes a global minimum corporate tax rate of 15%. Various countries have enacted or have announced plans to enact new tax laws to implement the global minimum tax and where enacted, the rules began to be effective for the Company in fiscal 2025. The Pillar Two rules are considered an alternative minimum tax and therefore deferred taxes would not be recognized or adjusted for the estimated effects of the future minimum tax. The adoption and effective dates of these rules may vary by country and could increase tax complexity and uncertainty and may adversely affect the Company’s provision for income taxes. These tax law changes did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements for the three months ended March 29, 2025 and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements for the remainder of fiscal 2025.
