INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES The following table summarizes our income tax expense and effective tax rate (ETR).
The ETR for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025 increased to 25.9% and 25.2%, respectively, primarily related to the jurisdictional mix of earnings. In October 2021, more than 135 countries and jurisdictions agreed to participate in a “two-pillar” international tax approach developed by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), which includes establishing a global minimum corporate tax rate of 15 percent. The OECD published Tax Challenges Arising from the Digitalisation of the Economy — Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (Pillar Two) in December 2021 and subsequently issued additional commentary and administrative guidance clarifying several aspects of the model rules. Since the model rules have been released, many countries have enacted Pillar Two-related laws, many of which became effective January 1, 2024 with additional laws effective January 1, 2025. As of June 28, 2025, the Company does not expect Pillar Two taxes to have a significant impact on its 2025 financial statements. On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which includes a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, including extending and modifying certain key Tax Cuts & Jobs Act provisions (both domestic and international) and expanding certain Inflation Reduction Act incentives while accelerating the phase-out of others. At this time, the Company is in the process of reviewing the legislation in detail and evaluating its potential impacts. We will continue to monitor any forthcoming guidance and will assess the effects on our business as more information becomes available. The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions and is subject to examination by tax authorities in these jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in several jurisdictions including China, Czechia, Germany, India, Italy, and the U.S. The estimated tax liability calculation for unrecognized tax benefits considers uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in various tax jurisdictions. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the current estimate of the unrecognized tax benefit. Over the next 12 months, the net amount of the tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits in foreign and domestic jurisdictions could decrease by approximately $0.9 due to changes in audit status, expiration of statutes of limitations and other events.
