Effective income tax rate. Our effective income tax rate was 22.8% for the six-month period ended April 3, 2021 compared with 21.4% for the six-month period ended March 28, 2020. The effective income tax rates for both periods were based upon the estimated rate applicable for the entire fiscal year adjusted to reflect any significant items related specifically to interim periods.

Deferred income taxes. As of April 3, 2021 and October 3, 2020, we recorded a deferred tax liability (net of valuation allowance) of $6.1 million and $6.6 million, respectively, in other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. We have $2.9 million of state net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) that begin to expire in 2031, but principally expire between 2031 and 2036.

The realization of our deferred tax assets is entirely dependent upon our ability to generate future taxable income in applicable jurisdictions. GAAP requires that we periodically assess the need to establish a reserve against our deferred tax assets to the extent we no longer believe it is more likely than not that they will be fully realized. As of April 3, 2021 and October 3, 2020, we recorded a valuation allowance of $162,000 and $207,000, respectively, pertaining to various state NOLs that were not expected to be utilized. The valuation allowance is subject to periodic review and adjustment based on changes in facts and circumstances and would be reduced should we utilize the state NOLs against which an allowance had previously been provided or determine that such utilization was more likely than not.

Uncertainty in income taxes. We establish contingency reserves for material, known tax exposures based on our assessment of the estimated liability that would be incurred in connection with the settlement of such matters. As of April 3, 2021, we had no material, known tax exposures that required the establishment of contingency reserves for uncertain tax positions.

We file U.S. federal, state and local income tax returns in various jurisdictions. Federal and various state tax returns filed subsequent to 2015 remain subject to examination.
