10. Income Taxes

        The Company's effective income tax rates were 86.6% and 40.2% for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and the first quarter of fiscal 2011, respectively. The effective tax rate in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was higher than the statutory rate primarily due to losses in foreign locations that provided no tax benefit. The effective tax rate in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was consistent with the Company's combined federal and state statutory tax rate.
