(8) Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate is impacted by the mix of foreign and U.S. income, tax rates in China and Hong Kong, the U.S. federal income tax rate, apportioned state income tax rates, the generation of credits, and deductions available to the Company as well as changes in valuation allowances and certain non-deductible items. No tax benefit was recorded on the losses incurred in certain foreign jurisdictions as a result of corresponding increases in the valuation allowances in these jurisdictions.

During the quarter and three quarters ended September 28, 2026, the Company’s effective tax rate was impacted by a net discrete expense of $17,393 and net discrete benefit of $10,060, respectively. The net discrete benefit was primarily related to the deduction of stock‑based compensation, partially offset by uncertain tax position reserves.

The Company has various foreign subsidiaries formed or acquired to conduct or support its business outside the U.S. The Company expects its earnings attributable to most foreign subsidiaries may be repatriated back to the U.S. Accordingly, a deferred tax liability has been recorded for foreign withholding taxes and the estimated federal/state tax impact on any repatriation. For the Company’s other foreign subsidiaries with earnings currently being reinvested outside of the U.S., no deferred tax liability on undistributed earnings has been recorded.
