Income Taxes | 13. Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate, as calculated by dividing income tax expense by income before income taxes, for YTD 2016 and YTD 2015 was 40.1% and 37.4%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was driven primarily by an increase in the state tax rate applied to the deferred tax assets and liabilities driven by the new territories, a decrease to the favorable manufacturing deduction (as a percentage of pre-tax income) caused by new territories which do not qualify for the deduction, and lower pre‑tax book income. The Company’s effective tax rate, as calculated by dividing income tax expense by income before income taxes minus net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, for YTD 2016 and YTD 2015 was 49.8% and 39.5%, respectively.
As of July 3, 2016, January 3, 2016 and June 28, 2015, the Company had $3.1 million, $2.9 million and $3.2 million, respectively, of uncertain tax positions, including accrued interest, all of which would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. While it is expected that the amount of uncertain tax positions may change in the next 12 months, the Company does not expect any change to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Prior tax years beginning in year 2012 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, and various tax years beginning in year 1998 remain open to examination by certain state tax jurisdictions due to loss carryforwards.
During Q1 2016, the Company revalued its existing net deferred tax liabilities for the effects which resulted from the YTD 2016 Expansion Transactions. The YTD 2016 impact of this revaluation was an increase to the recorded income tax expense of $0.8 million.
