Income Taxes |
13. Income Taxes
The components of the provision for income
taxes (income tax benefit) for each of the three years were as follows:
A reconciliation of the Company’s
provision for income taxes (income tax benefit) and income taxes based on the statutory U.S. federal rate of 21.0% in 2022, 2021 and 2020 was as follows:
The decrease in the Company’s provision for income taxes in 2022 as compared to 2021 is primarily due to the decrease in income before
income taxes and the benefit of higher income tax credits. The increase in the Company’s provision for income taxes in 2021 as compared to 2020 is primarily due to the increase in income before income taxes.
Significant components of the Company’s net deferred tax liability consisted of the following at:
The Company has a deferred tax asset of $15,248
reflecting federal income tax credit carryforwards that expire in 2043. The Company has state income tax net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”) of $67,418
and has recorded a deferred tax asset of $3,811 reflecting this benefit. These state NOLs generally expire in years beginning 2037 and
after.
The Company believes that adequate
amounts of tax, interest and penalties have been provided for potential tax uncertainties; these amounts are included in other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of July 29, 2022 and July 30, 2021, the Company’s gross
liability for uncertain tax positions, exclusive of interest and penalties, was $10,858 and $14,477, respectively.
Summarized below is a tabular
reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of the Company’s total gross liability for uncertain tax positions exclusive of interest and penalties:
If the Company were to prevail on
all uncertain tax positions, the reversal of this accrual would be a tax benefit to the Company and impact the effective tax rate. The following table highlights the amount of uncertain tax positions, exclusive of interest and penalties, which, if
recognized, would affect the effective tax rate for each of the three years:
The Company had $7,133, $7,755, and $7,210 in interest and penalties accrued as of July 29, 2022, July 30, 2021, and July 31,
2020, respectively.
The Company recognized accrued
interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits of $(622), $545 and $913 in its provision for income taxes on July 29, 2022, July 30, 2021 and July 31, 2020,
respectively.
In many cases, the Company’s
uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by the relevant taxing authorities. Based on the outcome of these examinations or as a result of the expiration of the statutes of limitations for specific taxing
jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the related uncertain tax positions taken regarding previously filed tax returns could decrease from those recorded as liabilities for uncertain tax positions in the Company’s financial statements at
July 29, 2022 by approximately $4,000 to $6,000 within the next twelve months. At July 29, 2022, the Company was subject to income tax examinations for its U.S. federal income taxes after 2018 and for state and local
income taxes generally after 2018.
