Income Taxes Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods is calculated by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate to “ordinary” income or loss for the reporting period, adjusted for discrete items. Due to various factors, including our estimate of annual income, our effective tax rate is subject to fluctuation.
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended July 30, 2022 was 15.8 percent, as compared to an effective tax rate of 25.2 percent tax for the three months ended July 31, 2021. The decrease in tax rate is primarily driven by an increase in estimated tax credits and other permanent items less valuation allowances as a percentage of estimated pre-tax earnings for fiscal 2023 compared to the estimated value of tax credits and other permanent items less valuation allowances as a percentage to the estimated pre-tax earnings at the first quarter of fiscal 2022.
We operate both domestically and internationally and, as of July 30, 2022, undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries were considered to be reinvested indefinitely. Additionally, as of July 30, 2022, we had $610 of unrecognized tax benefits which would reduce our effective tax rate if recognized.
