The Company maintains valuation allowances on deferred tax assets applicable to subsidiaries in jurisdictions for which separate income tax returns are filed and where realization of the related deferred tax assets from future profitable operations is not reasonably assured. Deferred tax valuation allowances increased approximately $94 million, $29 million and $8 million in Fiscal 2020, Fiscal 2019 and Fiscal 2018, respectively. The Company established valuation allowances amounting to approximately $110 million in Fiscal 2020, as a result of the expected inability to realize deferred tax asset balances in certain countries comprising the Company’s North American, European, and Asian operations. Additionally, in certain jurisdictions the Company remeasured and increased the valuation allowance by approximately $3 million in Fiscal 2020. The Company also remeasured and reduced the valuation allowance by approximately $19 million in Fiscal 2020 and released valuation allowances of approximately $3 million and $1 million in Fiscal 2019 and Fiscal 2018, respectively. At March 28, 2020, the Company had non-U.S. and U.S. net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $570 million, a portion of which will begin to expire in 2020. As of March 28, 2020 and March 30, 2019, the Company had liabilities related to its uncertain tax positions, including accrued interest, of approximately $109 million and $203 million, respectively, which are included in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The March 28, 2020 balance, compared to the March 30, 2019 balance, includes the release of income tax reserves in North America and Europe. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate was approximately$82 million, $112 million and $101 million as of March 28, 2020, March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding accrued interest, for Fiscal 2020, Fiscal 2019 and Fiscal 2018, are presented below (in millions):
| Fiscal Years Ended |  |  |  |
| March 28, 2020 |  | March 30, 2019 |  | March 31, 2018

(1)Primarily relates to the Versace acquisition. (2)Primarily relates to releases of North American and European tax reserves (3)Primarily relates to US audit effective settlement The Company classifies interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as components of the provision for income taxes. Interest expense recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for Fiscal 2020, Fiscal 2019 and Fiscal 2018 was approximately $11 million, $11 million and $7 million, respectively. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits relating to the Company’s tax positions is subject to change based on future events including, but not limited to, the settlements of ongoing tax audits and assessments and the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations. The Company anticipates that the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, will be reduced by approximately $8 million during the next 12 months, primarily due to the anticipated settlement of a tax examination as well as statute of limitation expirations. However, the outcomes and timing of such events are highly uncertain and changes in the occurrence, expected outcomes, and timing of such events could cause the Company’s current estimate to change materially in the future. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S., for federal, state, and local purposes, and in certain foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to examinations by the relevant tax authorities for years prior to its fiscal year ended April 1, 2017. Prior to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the Company's undistributed foreign earnings were considered permanently reinvested and, as such, United States federal and state income taxes were not previously recorded on these earnings. As a result of the Tax Act, substantially all of the Company’s earnings in foreign subsidiaries generated prior to the enactment of the Tax Act were deemed to have been repatriated. It remains the Company's intent to either reinvest indefinitely substantially all of its foreign earnings outside of the United States or repatriate them tax neutrally. However, if future earnings are repatriated, the potential exists that the Company may be required to accrue and pay additional taxes, including any applicable foreign withholding tax and income taxes. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of tax that might be payable if these earnings were repatriated due to the complexities associated with the hypothetical calculation.
