Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income Taxes Income taxes for the three-months ended March 26, 2022 represented a tax expense of $6.4 million on pre-tax losses of $35.4 million. This compared to a tax expense of $1.0 million, on pre-tax losses of $47.3 million for the three-months ended March 27, 2021. Provision for income taxes increased by approximately $5.4 million during the three-months ended March 26, 2022, compared to the corresponding period in 2021 as a result of an increase in income taxes and withholding taxes in foreign jurisdictions, primarily driven by an increase in Germany's withholding tax rate to 18.8% as compared to 5.3% in the three months ended March 27, 2021.The Company must assess the likelihood that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income within the respective jurisdictions. In the past, the Company established a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as it determined that its ability to recover the value of these assets did not meet the “more-likely-than-not” standard. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management judgment is required on an on-going basis to determine whether it needs to maintain the valuation allowance recorded against its net deferred tax assets. The Company must consider all positive and negative evidence, including its forecasts of taxable income over the applicable carryforward periods, its current financial performance, its market environment and other factors in evaluating the need for a valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets. At March 26, 2022, the Company does not believe that it is more-likely-than-not that it would be able to utilize its domestic deferred tax assets in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the domestic net deferred tax assets continued to be fully reserved with a valuation allowance. To the extent that the Company determines that deferred tax assets are realizable on a more-likely-than-not basis, and adjustment is needed, that adjustment will be recorded in the period that the determination is made and would generally decrease the valuation allowance and record a corresponding benefit to earnings.
