Income Taxes
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 14.1% and 14.8% for the quarters ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The lower effective income tax rate for the quarter ended June 29, 2019 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2018 was primarily due to a charge recorded in the second quarter of 2018 related to the change in the Company’s assertion with respect to the repatriation of foreign earnings as a result of the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”).
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 14.1% and 15.2% for the six months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. The lower effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 29, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily due to a charge recorded in the second quarter of 2018 related to the change in the Company’s assertion with respect to the repatriation of foreign earnings as a result of the implementation of the Tax Act, as well as a discrete charge in 2018 as a result of a tax law change in a foreign jurisdiction.
The Company files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, as well as separate and combined income tax returns in numerous state and foreign jurisdictions. In the United States, the IRS began an examination of the Company’s 2015 and 2016 tax years during 2017 and 2018, respectively. The Company is also subject to examination by various state and foreign tax authorities. The tax years subject to examination vary by jurisdiction. The Company regularly assesses the outcomes of both ongoing and future examinations for the current or prior years to ensure the Company’s provision for income taxes is sufficient. The Company recognizes liabilities based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due and believes its reserves are adequate in relation to any potential assessments. The outcome of any one examination, some of which may conclude during the next 12 months, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
