6 Months Ended

The following table presents the Company’s provision for income taxes (in thousands):



	Fiscal Quarter Ended						Two Fiscal Quarters Ended
	June 30, 2020			July 2, 2019			June 30, 2020			July 2, 2019
Provision for income taxes	$	33		$	—		$	46		$	—
Effective tax rate	(0.2		)%	—		%	(0.2		)%	—		%

The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019 reflect the impact of the previously recorded valuation allowance. For the remainder of fiscal 2020, the Company does not anticipate material income tax expense or benefit

as a result of the valuation allowance recorded. The Company will maintain the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support a full or partial reversal. The reversal of a previously recorded valuation allowance will generally result in a benefit from income tax.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which provides economic relief in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, was signed into law. The CARES Act includes provisions that permit refunds of alternative minimum tax credits, temporary modifications to the limitations placed on the tax deductibility of net interest expenses, and technical amendments for qualified improvement property (“QIP”). We do not expect that the provisions in the CARES Act will have a material impact to our tax rate or expense during 2020.
