ASC 740 requires that an entity's deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent its management determines that it is more likely than not that such deferred tax asset, or portion thereof, will not be realized. Management evaluated the realizability of its deferred tax assets to determine the need and appropriateness of a valuation allowance. In its determinations, Management considers items of evidence, both positive and negative, including those items outlined in ASC 740. The Company policy outlines measurable objective criteria that must be met before a release of the valuation allowance will occur. The three criteria set forth in the policy must all be satisfied before the valuation allowance can be reversed. The criteria are as follows: first, the Company’s available federal tax net operating loss ("NOL") must be zero; second, the prior thirty-six month cumulative book basis pre-tax income (loss), after considering “one-time” events, is positive; third, the Company considers its outlook of near term continued profitable operations and assesses any material negative and positive trends or events on the immediate horizon. As of October 30, 2015, the Company (1) will extinguish its federal tax NOL, (2) has positive thirty-six month cumulative book income and (3) profitable operations are anticipated given recent positive economic factors including lower and more stable commodity costs combined with a reduction in the level of significant non-performing divisions (closure of the refrigerated snack division during the prior fiscal year). Due to the degree of judgment involved, actual taxable income could differ materially from management's estimates, or the timing of taxable income could be such that the net operating losses could expire prior to their utilization. Management could determine in the future that the assets are unrealizable, materially decreasing net income in one or more periods. Following recognition, management could reinstate a full valuation allowance should operating performance decline. As of October 30, 2015, we had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $0 and $2,951 respectively. These loss carryforwards will expire at various dates from 2018 through 2033. In July 2006, the FASB issued guidance to clarify the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. This interpretation prescribed a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The guidance also discussed derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The provisions of this guidance have been incorporated into Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740-10. In November 2015, the FASB issued guidance in ASU 2015-17 concerning the balance sheet classification of deferred taxes in an initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. All deferred tax liabilities and assets should now be classified as noncurrent in the statement of financial position to simplify presentation of deferred tax assets. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We have already adopted this guidance and the change is reflected of October 30, 2015. As of October 30, 2015, we have provided a liability of $112 for unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters. A significant portion of this amount would generally reduce our effective income tax rate if recognized in future reporting periods. We have not identified any new unrecognized tax benefits. As of October 31, 2014, we have provided a liability of $100 for unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters. A significant portion of this amount would generally reduce our effective income tax rate if recognized in future reporting periods. We have not identified any new unrecognized tax benefits. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
|  | 52 Weeks |
|  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |
Balance at beginning of year |  | $ | 100 |  |  | $ | 100 |
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year |  |  | 12 |  |  |  | - |
Additions for tax positions of prior years |  |  | 2 |  |  |  | 1 |
Reductions for tax positions of prior years |  |  | (2 | ) |  |  | (1 | )
Settlements |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |
Balance at end of year |  | $ | 112 |  |  | $ | 100 |
We recognize any future accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of October 30, 2015, we had approximately $6 in accrued interest and penalties which is included as a component of the $112 unrecognized tax benefit noted above. Our federal income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended October 31, 2012 through 2014. We are subject to income tax in California and various other state taxing jurisdictions. Our state income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2011 through 2014. We do not anticipate a significant change to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.
