The effective income tax rates for the three and six month periods ended April 28, 2013 and April 29, 2012, differ from the U.S. statutory rate of 35% primarily due to foreign tax rate differences, as well as the existence of valuation allowances in jurisdictions with historical and continuing tax losses.

Unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions were $3.9 million at April 28, 2013 and October 28, 2012, of which $1.9 million would favorably impact the Company's effective tax rate if recognized. Accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were $0.1 million at April 28, 2013 and October 28, 2012. As of April 28, 2013, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits is not expected to significantly increase or decrease in the next twelve months.

PKLT, the Company's FPD manufacturing facility in Taiwan, is accorded a tax holiday which commenced in 2012 and expires in 2017. The tax holiday had no dollar or per share effect in the three and six month periods ended April 28, 2013 or the three and six month periods ended April 29, 2012.
