Note 4 – Income Taxes

 

       In the normal course of business, we provide for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and penalties, and adjust our unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest and penalties accordingly. The total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits were $5.8 million and $5.5 million, respectively, at December 29, 2012 and March 31, 2012, the majority of which, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. As of December 29, 2012, we had approximately $.7 million of interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits.

 

       We are currently under audit by certain state tax jurisdictions for the fiscal 2001 through 2004 and fiscal 2007 through 2010 tax years. It is possible that the examination phase of the audits for these years may conclude in the next 12 months, and that the related unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken regarding previously filed tax returns may change from those recorded as liabilities for uncertain tax positions in our financial statements as of December 29, 2012. However, based on the status of the examinations, it is not possible to estimate the effect of any amount of such change to previously recorded uncertain tax positions.

 

       We file U.S. federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various state jurisdictions. Our fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2012 U.S. federal tax year and various state tax years remain subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities.
