The effective tax rate was approximately 27% on income from continuing operations for both the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024. The effective tax rate for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024 as compared to the U.S. statutory rate of 21%, was primarily affected by the rate differential on our foreign earnings and the impact of state and local taxes in the U.S.

On July 4, 2025, the reconciliation bill H.R. 1 was enacted into law in the U.S. H.R.1 includes a broad range of tax reform provisions, including the elective deduction for domestic Research and Development (R&D), a reinstatement of elective 100% first-year bonus depreciation and changes to the interest limitation calculation under 163(j), among other provisions. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the H.R. 1 tax provisions which could affect the Company's effective tax rate and deferred tax assets in 2025 and future periods. A quantitative estimate of the specific financial effects cannot be reasonably determined at this time due to the complexity of the changes in the tax reform and optionality of voluntary elections.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of July 4, 2025 and January 3, 2025 was $141 million and $142 million, respectively. The remaining valuation allowance is primarily related to foreign tax credit carryforwards and foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards that, in the judgment of management, do not meet the more likely than not realization threshold. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income, in the appropriate character and source, during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible or within the remaining carryforward period. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment.
The utilization of the unreserved foreign tax credit carryforwards is based on our ability to generate income from foreign sources of approximately $162 million prior to their expiration. The utilization of other net deferred tax assets, excluding those associated with indefinite-lived intangible assets, is based on our ability to generate U.S. forecasted taxable income of approximately $971 million. Changes in our forecasted taxable income, in the appropriate character and source, as well as jurisdiction, could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets.
The provision for uncertain tax positions included in other liabilities and deferred income taxes on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of July 4, 2025 and January 3, 2025 was $86 million and $85 million, respectively.
