Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | 19. Income Taxes Effective Income Tax Rate We recorded income tax expense of $2.2 million, or 35.1% of income before income taxes, for the six- month period ended October 28, 2018, compared to income tax expense of $3.7 million or 29.1% of income before income taxes, for the six-month period ended October 29, 2017. Our effective income tax rates for the six-month periods ended October 28, 2018, and October 29, 2017, were based upon the estimated effective income tax rate applicable for the full year after giving effect to any significant items related specifically to interim periods. The effective income tax rate can be affected over the fiscal year by the mix and timing of actual earnings from our U.S. operations and foreign subsidiaries located in China and Canada versus annual projections and changes in foreign currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar. The following schedule summarizes the factors that contribute to the difference between income tax expense at the federal income tax rate and the effective income tax rate reflected in the consolidated financial statements:
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |
Federal income tax rate |  |  | 21.0 | % |  |  | 34.0 | %
Foreign income tax rate differential |  |  | 7.8 |  |  |  | 1.1 |
Tax effects of Chinese foreign exchange (losses) gains |  |  | 2.8 |  |  |  | (1.5 | )
Global Intangible Low Taxed Income Tax (GILTI) |  |  | 2.1 |  |  |  | — |
Change in estimate of valuation allowance |  |  | 1.2 |  |  |  | 0.7 |
Excess income tax deficiency (benefits) related to stock-based compensation |  |  | 0.5 |  |  |  | (4.3 | )
Other |  |  | (0.3 | ) |  |  | (0.9 | )
|  |  | 35.1 | % |  |  | 29.1 | %
2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (H.R.1) (the “Tax Act”) was signed into law. The key effects of the Tax Act on our financial statements during fiscal 2019 will be the reduction of our U.S federal statutory income tax rate to 21% compared with the blended statutory income tax rate of 30.4% during fiscal 2018 and the creation of the Global Intangible Low Taxed Income Tax (“GILTI”). In order to calculate GILTI, provisional estimates were required based on (i) projection and estimates associated with U.S. and foreign pre-tax earnings and income tax expense for fiscal 2019, (ii) projections and estimates regarding certain assets that will be held in our domestic operations or foreign subsidiaries, and (iii) projections and estimates associated with our net sales with foreign jurisdictions. Our estimates may change based on actual versus projected results. Deferred Income Taxes Valuation Allowance In accordance with ASC Topic 740, we evaluate our deferred income taxes to determine if a valuation allowance is required. ASC Topic 740 requires that companies assess whether a valuation allowance should be established based on the consideration of all available evidence using a “more-likely-than-not” standard, with significant weight being given to evidence that can be objectively verified. Since the company operates in multiple jurisdictions, we assess the need for a valuation allowance on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis, taking into account the effects of local tax law. Based on our assessments at October 28, 2018, October 29, 2017, and April 29, 2018, valuation allowances against our deferred income taxes pertain to the following jurisdictions:
(dollars in thousands) |  | October 28, 2018 |  |  | October 29, 2017 |  |  | April 29, 2018 |
U.S. foreign income tax credits |  | $ | 4,550 |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | 4,550 |
U.S. state loss carryforwards and credits |  |  | 756 |  |  |  | 554 |  |  |  | 578 |
Polish loss carryforwards |  |  | — |  |  |  | 78 |  |  |  | 76 |
|  | $ | 5,306 |  |  |  | 632 |  |  |  | 5,204 |
Undistributed Earnings In accordance with ASC Topic 740, we assess whether the undistributed earnings from our foreign subsidiaries will be reinvested indefinitely or eventually distributed to our U.S. parent company. ASC Topic 740 requires that a deferred tax liability should be recorded for undistributed earnings from foreign subsidiaries that will not be reinvested indefinitely. Based on our assessment as of October 28, 2018, it is our intention not to permanently invest our undistributed earnings from our foreign subsidiaries. Also, we assess the recognition of U.S. foreign income tax credits associated with foreign withholding and income tax payments and whether it is more-likely-than-not that our foreign income tax credits will not be realized. If it is determined that any foreign income tax credits need to be recognized or it is more-likely-than-not our foreign income tax credits will not be realized, an adjustment to our provision for income taxes will be recognized at that time. For fiscal 2019 and beyond, the Tax Act allows a U.S. corporation a 100% dividend received deduction for earnings and profits received from a 10% owned foreign corporation. Therefore, a deferred tax liability will be required for withholding taxes that are incurred by our foreign subsidiaries at the time earnings and profits are distributed. As a result, at October 28, 2018 and April 29, 2018, we recorded a deferred income tax liability of $3.1 million and $4.3 million for withholding taxes on undistributed earnings and profits from our foreign subsidiaries. At October 29, 2017, which was prior to the Tax Act being signed into law, we recorded a deferred income tax liability of $322,000, which included U.S. and foreign withholding taxes totaling $42.4 million, offset by U.S. foreign income tax credits of $42.1 million. Uncertainty In Income Taxes In accordance with ASC Topic 740, an unrecognized income tax benefit for an uncertain income tax position can be recognized in the first interim period if the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is met by the reporting period, or is effectively settled through examination, negotiation, or litigation, or the statute of limitations for the relevant taxing authority to examine and challenge the tax position has expired. If it is determined that any of the above conditions occur regarding our uncertain income tax positions, an adjustment to our unrecognized income tax benefits will be recorded at that time. At October 28, 2018, we had a $820,000 total gross unrecognized income tax benefit, of which $440,000 and $380,000 were classified as income taxes payable- long-term and non-current deferred income taxes, respectively, in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. At October 29, 2017, we had a $12.6 million total gross unrecognized income tax benefit, of which $12.1 million and $487,000 were classified as non-current deferred income taxes and income taxes payable – long-term, respectively, in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. At April 29, 2018, we had a $844,000 total gross unrecognized income tax benefit, of which $464,000 and $380,000 were classified as income taxes payable – long-term and non-current deferred income taxes respectively, in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. At October 28, 2018, our $820,000 total gross unrecognized income tax benefit included $440,000 that, if recognized, would favorably affect the income tax rate in future periods. At October 29, 2017, our $12.6 million total gross unrecognized income tax benefit, included $487,000 that, if recognized, would favorably affect the income tax rate in future periods. At April 29, 2018, our $844,000 total gross unrecognized income tax benefit included $464,000 that, if recognized, would favorably affect the income tax rate in future periods. Our gross unrecognized income tax benefit of $820,000, relates to income tax positions for which significant change is currently not expected within the next year. This amount primarily relates to double taxation under applicable income tax treaties with foreign tax jurisdictions.
