Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]

Note 11 — Income Taxes

The Company’s quarterly provision for income taxes is determined by estimating an annual effective tax rate.  This estimate may fluctuate throughout the year as new information becomes available affecting its underlying assumptions.

The Company recorded an income tax provision of $805,000 and $1,106,000 for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018, respectively, and $146,000 and $287,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, primarily due to pre-tax income generated in certain foreign jurisdictions.  There are no unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken by the Company. 

For the fiscal year-ended December 29, 2017 and prior years, the Company provided foreign withholding and U.S. income taxes on all unremitted foreign earnings, as the earnings from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries were not considered to be permanently reinvested. Effective for the current year, the Company no longer provides U.S. income taxes on foreign earnings (see discussion below). Although foreign earnings are no longer subject to U.S. taxation, the Company continues to provide withholding taxes related to such unremitted earnings.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Reform

On December 22, 2017, the United States enacted major tax reform legislation. Most of the changes from the new law are effective for years beginning after December 31, 2017 with the noted exemption of the deemed repatriation of offshore earnings. Public Law No. 115-97, commonly referred to as the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“2017 Tax Act”) put into effect a number of changes impacting operations outside the United States including, but not limited to, the imposition of a one-time tax “deemed repatriation” on accumulated offshore earnings not previously subject to U.S. tax, and shifts the U.S taxation of multinational corporations from a worldwide system of taxation to a territorial system. As such, the 2017 Tax Act provides an exemption against U.S. federal taxation on foreign earnings generated after December 31, 2017 and repatriated back to the U.S.
