Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Effective Income Tax Rate Income tax expense for the interim periods is computed using the income tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, adjusted for discrete items. The Company’s effective income tax rate was a benefit of 6.3% for the nine months ended October 28, 2023 compared to an expense of 34.2% for the nine months ended October 29, 2022. The change in the effective income tax rate was primarily due to a discrete income tax benefit recognized during the third quarter of fiscal 2024 as a result of the consolidation of certain business functions into Switzerland as described below and, to a lesser extent, the lower losses incurred in certain tax jurisdictions during the nine months ended October 28, 2023 compared to the same prior-year period. Intra-Entity Transactions During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company completed an intra-entity transfer of intellectual property rights from certain U.S. entities to a wholly-owned Swiss subsidiary, more closely aligning the Company’s intellectual property rights with its business operations. This transaction resulted in a taxable gain in the U.S. The U.S. taxable gain generated by this intercompany transfer of intellectual property was primarily offset by the recognition of a deferred income tax asset in the Swiss subsidiary. During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company recognized a one-time net tax benefit of €34.8 million ($36.8 million) related to the consolidation of certain business functions into Switzerland that was approved by the Switzerland tax authority during the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Changes in Income Tax Law During calendar 2019, Switzerland implemented income tax reform (“Swiss tax reform”) that was effective as of January 1, 2020. The Swiss tax reform eliminated certain preferential income tax treatments and included transitional relief measures which provided for future income tax deductions. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recognized a one-time income tax benefit of approximately $8.1 million related primarily to the recognition of a deferred income tax asset associated with the estimated value of an income tax basis step-up of the Company’s Switzerland subsidiary’s assets. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company recorded a $2.3 million reserve for uncertain income tax positions related to such deferred income tax asset. During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, based on recent developments among European Union tax authorities, the Company wrote off the $8.1 million tax benefit related to the value of the income tax basis step-up of the Company’s Switzerland subsidiary’s assets, resulting in a net income tax expense of $5.8 million during the quarter. Unrecognized Income Tax Benefit The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and foreign income tax, as well as income tax of multiple state and foreign local jurisdictions. From time-to-time, the Company is subject to routine income and other audits on various income tax matters around the world in the ordinary course of business. As of October 28, 2023, no major income tax or other tax audits were ongoing. As of October 28, 2023 and January 28, 2023, the Company had $64.3 million and $64.4 million, respectively, of aggregate accruals for uncertain income tax positions, including penalties and interest. This includes an accrual of $19.9 million for the estimated transition tax (excluding interest) related to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform”) and $20.6 million for the intra-entity transfer of intellectual property rights from certain U.S. entities to a wholly-owned Swiss subsidiary, substantially offset by the related deferred income tax benefit recorded by the Swiss subsidiary. The Company reviews and updates the estimates used in the accrual for uncertain income tax positions, as appropriate, as more definitive information or interpretations become available from income taxing authorities, and on the completion of income tax audits, the receipt of assessments, expiration of statutes of limitations, or occurrence of other events. During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company became aware of a foreign withholding income tax regulation that could be interpreted to apply to certain of its previous transactions. The Company currently does not expect its exposure, if any, will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Indefinite Reinvestment Assertion The Company has historically considered the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries to be indefinitely reinvested. As a result of the Tax Reform, the Company had a substantial amount of previously taxed earnings that could be distributed to the U.S. without additional U.S. taxation. As of October 28, 2023, the Company determined that approximately $67.1 million of such foreign earnings are not indefinitely reinvested. The incremental tax cost to repatriate these earnings to the U.S. is immaterial. The Company intends to indefinitely reinvest the remaining earnings from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries for which a deferred income tax liability has not already been recorded. The Company continues to evaluate its plans for reinvestment or repatriation of unremitted foreign earnings and regularly reviews its cash positions and determination of indefinite reinvestment of foreign earnings. If the Company determines that all or a portion of such foreign earnings are no longer indefinitely reinvested, the Company may be subject to additional foreign withholding taxes and U.S. state income taxes, beyond the one-time transition tax.
