The Company’s provision for income taxes was $10.7 million for fiscal 2026, $2.2 million for fiscal 2025 and $6.1 million for fiscal 2024. The Company’s tax expense for fiscal 2026 was primarily due to profitable U.S. and foreign subsidiaries, with no offsetting benefit recorded on losses in jurisdictions for which no benefit can be realized. The Company’s tax expense for fiscal 2025 was primarily due to profitable U.S. and foreign subsidiaries, partially offset by a partial Canada valuation allowance release. The Company’s tax expense for fiscal 2024 was primarily due to profitable U.S. and foreign subsidiaries, partially offset by a partial Canada valuation allowance release.
The Company’s effective income tax rates for fiscal 2026, fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 were 81%, 63% and 36%, respectively. The increase in the effective income tax rate from fiscal 2025 to fiscal 2026 was primarily driven by changes in uncertain tax positions and increases in valuation allowances, offset by prior year true-up adjustments.
The following table reflects income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. No individual state exceeded 5% of total income taxes paid for any of the years presented.

The Company’s valuation allowance related to deferred income taxes, as reflected on the consolidated balance sheets, was $37.0 million as of July 3, 2026 and $32.5 million as of June 27, 2025. The change in valuation allowance for the fiscal years ended July 3, 2026, and June 27, 2025, was an increase of $4.5 million and a decrease of $2.0 million, respectively.
The increase in the valuation allowance in fiscal 2026 was primarily due to the increase of certain foreign valuation allowances relating to net operating losses being generated in fiscal 2026. In contrast, the decrease in the valuation allowance in fiscal 2025 was primarily due to the release of certain foreign valuation allowances. As of July 3, 2026, the Company maintains a valuation allowance of $0.7 million on certain U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets that the Company believes is not more likely than not to be realized in future periods.
Tax loss and credit carryforwards as of July 3, 2026, have expiration dates ranging between one year and no expiration in certain instances. The amounts of U.S. federal tax loss carryforwards as of July 3, 2026, was $219.2 million and begin to expire in fiscal 2028. The amount of U.S. federal and state tax credit carryforwards as of July 3, 2026, was $5.3 million, and certain credits begin to expire in fiscal 2027. The amount of foreign tax loss carryforwards as of July 3, 2026, was $203.9 million and certain losses begin to expire in fiscal 2027. The amount of foreign tax credit carryforwards as of July 3, 2026, was $2.5 million, and certain credits begin to expire in fiscal 2027.
The Company uses the flow-through method to account for investment tax credits generated on eligible scientific research and development expenditures. Under this method, the investment tax credits are recognized as a benefit to income tax in the year they are generated.
United States income taxes have not been provided on basis differences in foreign subsidiaries of $34.1 million as of July 3, 2026, because of the Company’s intention to reinvest these earnings indefinitely. Additionally, no foreign withholding taxes, federal or state taxes have been provided if these unremitted earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries were distributed, as such amounts are considered permanently reinvested. It is not practicable to estimate the additional income taxes, including applicable foreign withholding taxes, that would be due upon the repatriation of these earnings.

We file income tax returns in the U.S., Singapore, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. We are currently under examination in Singapore for fiscal years 2015 to 2021 and in various other foreign jurisdictions. We remain subject to potential U.S. federal income tax audits for fiscal year 2022 and after, and in Singapore for fiscal years after 2014. Additionally, all net operating losses and tax credits generated to date in these two jurisdictions are subject to adjustment.
On March 11, 2021, the U.S. enacted the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (“ARPA”) which expanded Section 162(m) of the Code to cover the next five most highly compensated employees for the taxable year, in addition to the “covered employees” effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2026. The Company will continue to examine the elements of the ARPA and the impact it may have on future business.
On August 16, 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) which includes a new corporate alternative minimum tax of 15% on adjusted financial statement income of corporations with profits greater than $1.0 billion, effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022, and a 1% excise tax on stock repurchases by public corporations after December 31, 2022. The IRA has not had a material impact to the Company and the Company will monitor its effect in future periods.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted into law. The Company has performed an initial assessment of the provisions contained within this legislation and does not currently anticipate any material impacts to its consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. However, the Company will continue to monitor developments and evaluate any potential impacts in future periods.
