Income Taxes

An estimate of the annual effective tax rate is used at each interim period based on the facts and circumstances available at that time, while the actual effective tax rate is calculated at year-end. For the 13-week periods ended November 3, 2018 and October 28, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of 19.7% and 34.5% of the loss before income taxes, respectively. For the 39-week periods ended November 3, 2018 and October 28, 2017, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of 23.6% and 34.1% of the loss before income taxes, respectively. The decrease in the tax rate for the 13-week and 39-week periods ended November 3, 2018 was primarily due to the effect of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which reduced the U.S. federal corporate rate from 35% to 21% effective as of January 1, 2018, which was partially offset by additional tax expense related to stock compensation activity.
