Note 4 – Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes consists of provisions for federal, state, and foreign income taxes.  The effective tax rates for the periods ended April 2, 2016 and April 4, 2015 reflect the Company's expected tax rate on reported income from continuing operations before income tax and tax adjustments. The Company operates in a global environment with significant operations in various jurisdictions outside the United States.  Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the Company's earnings and the applicable tax rates in the various jurisdictions where the Company operates.

Income tax expense for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2016 includes a remeasurement of the deferred tax liability recorded for the cash repatriation program announced in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2015 of $769.

During the three fiscal months ended April 2, 2016, the liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits increased by $1,150 on a net basis, principally due to increases for tax positions taken in prior periods, interest, and foreign currency effects.
