Income Taxes
The provisions for income taxes for the 2026 and 2025 thirty-nine-week periods were based on estimated annual effective income tax rates of 25.4% and 24.6%, respectively, adjusted for discrete events, such as excess tax benefits or deficiencies resulting from stock-based awards. The effective income tax rate for the 2026 thirty-nine-week period was 25.6%. The effective income tax rate was higher than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% in the 2026 period primarily attributable to state taxes. The effective income tax rate for the 2025 thirty-nine-week period was 24.9%. The effective income tax rate was higher than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% in the 2025 period primarily attributable to state taxes.
