INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rate for the nine months ending September 30, 2017 was 68.6% compared with a benefit rate of 43.0% for the nine months ending September 24, 2016. The nine months ended September 30, 2017 included $164 of tax expense related to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 which requires a shortfall of tax benefits related to stock compensation to be recognized in income tax expense instead of additional paid in capital. The Company is in a net deferred tax asset position of $7,051 and $7,610 at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income tax positions according to FASB guidance relating to uncertain tax positions. Unrecognized tax benefits were $420 and $406 at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Such benefits, if recognized, would affect the Company's effective tax rate. There were no significant interest or penalties accrued as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to United States federal income taxes, as well as income taxes in a number of state jurisdictions. The tax years subsequent to 2013 remain open to examination for U.S. federal income taxes. The majority of state jurisdictions remain open for tax years subsequent to 2012. A few state jurisdictions remain open to examination for tax years subsequent to 2011.
